275g/10ozs/2 cups plain flour
20ml/4tsp ground ginger
10ml/2sp mixed spice
115g/4oz/1/2 cup soft light brown sugar
60ml/4tbsp sunflower oil
30ml/2tbsp molasses or black treacle
30ml/2tbsp malt extract
2 eggs
60ml/4tbsp orange juice
3 bananas 1
15g/4ozs/2/3 cup raisins
(I ran out of plain flour last time I made this so used SR instead without bicarb, I think it was better because it rose more evenly!)
Preheat oven to 180c/350f/Gas 4.
Lightly line & grease 18x28cm/7x11in baking tin
Sift flour into bowl with the spices & bicarb.
Mix in the sugar with some of the flour and sift into bowl
Make a well in the centre, add the oil, molasses/black treacle, malt extract, eggs & orange juice and mix together thoroughly
Mash bananas, add them to the bowl with the raisins and mix well together
Pour the mixture into tin and bake for 35-40 minutes, until the centre springs back when lightly pressed
Leave the cake in tin to cool for 5 minutes, then turn out onto wire rack and leave to cool completely. Cut into 20 slices
