Sieve the flour, sugar, sweetener &baking powder in to a large mixing bowl. Add chopped bananas and mix well

Then melt the olive spread in a separate container- I usually do this on the defrost setting on the microwave then allow to slightly cool

Create a well hole in the middle of the cake mixture in the mixing bowl and pour in your 2 eggs and melted olive spread & continue to mix well until has a good consistency.

Grease a loaf Tin or cake tin (I always use a loose bottom one) with light olive spread.

Pour in the cake mixture and sprinkle on a little sugar on top.

Then place on the middle shelf of the oven and cook for approx 1hour dependant on tin used and efficiency of the oven.

Use a knife to do the skewer test to ensure the cake is cooked though.

Remove from oven and allow to g

For 10-15mins before removing from tin.

Place on serving plate and sprinkle a pinch of sugar hon top.
