Soft, speckled bananas are best for this recipe. The mixture also makes adorable little mini muffins if you cook them in individual cases - great for children's packed lunches. Big kids like them too!
Ingredients
40g/1½oz cherries
75g/3oz sultanas
110g/4oz butter, softened
110g/4oz caster sugar
2 large eggs, preferably free-range
3 large ripe bananas
175g/6oz fine rice flour
50g/2oz cornflour
2 tsp gluten-free baking powder
½ tsp salt
1kg/2lb loaf tin, lined with parchment paper, or 24 small paper muffin cases

Method
1. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4.
2. Wash and dry the cherries. Cut into quarters and mix with the sultanas. Set aside.
3. Cream the butter and sugar together until pale, light and soft. Add the eggs, one by one, and beat well between each addition.
4. Mash the bananas and add to the creamed mixture. Sift the rice flour, cornflour, gluten-free baking powder and salt together and fold carefully into the banana mixture. Very gently, stir in the cherries and sultanas, so that they are evenly distributed through the mixture.
5. Pour the mixture into the loaf tin or into 24 small muffin cases and bake in the oven for about 1¼ - 1½ hours for the loaf, 25 minutes for the mini muffins, until golden on top and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
6. Remove the loaf from the tin and cool on a wire rack; cool mini muffins on a rack in their paper cases. Slice the loaf into eight slices to serve

Thanks Trish. I have the rice flour and cornflour. I will have to try to find some gluten free baking powder.

You have no idea what a faff this gluten free lark is in Cyprus. :lol:

Yet noticed one of the hotels in Paphos actually caters for gluten free diets :lol:
