Notes

*With regard to the amount of sugar in this recipe, many readers and indeed myself, have found that you can cut down on the amount as very ripe bananas have a higher sugar content than just ripe bananas. As this is such a popular recipe I'm not going to adapt the amount as this would be confusing for returning visitors. But I would say you could reduce the amount to nearly half if you wish.
