Ingredients
| 210 | g | Flour (1 ¾ Cups) |
| 5 | ml | Bicarbonate of soda (1 tsp) |
| 5 | ml | Salt (1 tsp) |
| 2 | ml | Cinnamon (½ tsp) |
| 115 | g | Margarine, softened (½ Cup) |

Method
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, bicarbonate of soda, salt and cinnamon. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, cream together the margarine and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the vanilla essence, mashed bananas and Marmite. Mix until well combined.
- Using a spatula, gently fold the dried ingredients into the batter until just combined. Do not overmix. Pour the batter into a greased bread tin and place the halved banana pieces on top of the batter, cut side facing up. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C / 350 °F for 50 – 60 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
