I was going to make these today but when I looked someone ate all the bananas. Oh well will have to hide them next time.

I cooked these last night and they were fantastic! I reduced the oil quantity to 95g and added an extra egg - plus about an extra 30g of choc chips! I also only put in 50g of sugar and my husband who is a big sweet tooth thought that they were definitely sweet enough.

I made them in the smaller kid size cupcake liners (cooked for 10 minutes) and have popped most in the freezer for lunch box fillers. It made about 35 at this size.

I will definitely make these again! Thanks!

I made these today using Skain's mods (but not the extra chocolate). They were sweet enough for us with the 50g of sugar. Quick and easy and will be a lunchbox regular here. Thank you Maddy.

Oh Also really yummy with Quick caramel custard for a quick dessert :)

I made these yesterday to take on a picnic.  They disappeared very quickly and were delicious  - even though I only had two bananas in the freezer.
Will try the modifications next time plus the correct amount of banana - but they were great just the way they were (i did reduce the sugar as DH is diabetic).  Thankyou for a great easy recipe.
