MOTHER’S DAY CARAMILK BANANA BREAD

Banana bread – a timeless treat that’s been passed down from mum to mum, kitchen to kitchen. Familiar, comforting, and always made with love.

If you’ve got a collection of spotty bananas on your bench, waiting for the right recipe to honour the special lady in your life this Mother’s Day – this is it!
But this isn’t your average banana bread. This version is soft, golden, and scattered with creamy Caramilk chocolate that melts into gooey, caramelised pockets of joy.

Bake it with her, for her, or in honour of her – and let every slice be a little thank you for all the love she’s shared over the years.

This recipe has been adapted by the wonderfully inventive home cook EatNik.

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine oil, brown sugar, eggs, yoghurt, mashed banana and vanilla and whisk.

PRO TIP

🍌 If your bananas need ripening, place them in a paper bag for a day or two until soft and easy to mash.
