Method

  • step 1

    Heat the oven to 160C/fan 140C/gas 3. Butter and line the base of a 900g loaf tin. Mix together the bananas, eggs, butter, toffee yogurt and sugar, until well combined. Sift the flour and baking powder together and fold into the mixture, then fold in three-quarters of the pecan nuts and half the toffees.

  • step 2

    Spoon the mixture into the tin and level the top. Sprinkle on the remaining nuts and toffees. Bake for 50-55 mins until the loaf is risen and feels springy. Cool in the tin, then remove and peel off the lining. Will keep, wrapped, in an airtight container, for up to 3-4 days.

Made this several times, with a variety of substitutions and it always turns out well. This time I substituted the butter with melted coconut oil (used around 65g), cut down on the sugar a little and included 100g dark chocolate chips rather than toffees (messy when still warm, but a popular…

Have made this twice now, used toffee eclairs (don't warm them first!) second time I used Lidl butterscotch sweets. Both worked really well. Used the hammer method! Baked them in a round tin which works really well. Gets better and more gooey after a couple of days.
