ingredients

180g butter, at room temperature, plus more for pan
180g granulated brown sugar
3 large eggs
250g self rising flour
1 tsp salt
2 large mashed very ripe bananas
2 tbsp instant coffee diluted with 1 tbsp water
140g strained Greek-style yoghurt
1 tsp cinnamon
100g chopped walnuts

For the glaze
½ cup icing sugar
1 tbsp water
1 tsp instant coffee

instructions

Preheat oven to 180o C.

1. Butter a rectangular loaf pan.

2. Beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, and beat well.

3. Gradually add the bananas, coffee, yoghurt and cinnamon.

4. In a medium bowl, mix together flour and salt. Add to the butter mixture, and whisk to incorporate.

5. Stir in nuts, and pour into prepared pan. It makes  a 23 by 12 cm loaf plus a few muffins.

6.  Never fill your cake or bread moulds all the way up, so that there is room for rising. For this cake fill about 3/4 of the pan.

7.  Bake until a knife or toothpick inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Let rest in pan for 10 minutes then turn out onto a rack to cool.

8. To make the glaze sift icing sugar. Dilute coffee into water and using a fork or small whisk blend into the sugar to make viscous paste. Pour over the cold cake.
