Time 1h25m

Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

200g wholemeal plain flour
100 plain flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
Pinch of salt
2 tsp cinnamon
70g walnuts, roughly chopped
130g sultanas
85g soft brown sugar
60ml vegetable oil
1 heaped tbsp low fat natural yoghurt
225g courgette, grated
170g ripe banana, mashed (about 2 normal sized bananas)
2 large eggs, beaten

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 180C/160C fan/350F/gas mark 4.
Grease with butter and line a medium (2lb) loaf tin.
Sift together the flours, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and cinnamon, with a pinch of salt in a large mixing bowl. Add the sugar, walnuts and sultanas.
In a separate bowl combine the remaining ingredients, before gently folding into the dry mixture.
Spoon the cake mixture into the prepared tin and bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes or until the cake is risen and golden brown. If the loaf is browning too quickly cover loosely with aluminium foil.
Leave to cool in the tin before turning out. Serve cut into thick slices, spread with butter if liked.
