Tip
Substitues
You could substitute 50g of the flour with ground or blitzed oats.
For a gluten free (GF) variation you could substitute the flour for 50/50 coconut and almond flour.
To dress them up for a morning tea or party they're delicious with a cream cheese frosting.
Great recipe for diabetics or for a sugar free snack.
Baking with kids
I make this with my 3 year old and it's a quick easy and fun recipe to make with him. Plus he gets to enjoy a couple of sultanas as we bake.
Today, he decided to put sultanas on top instead of the whole walnuts. I'll try and remember to upload a picture next time with the walnuts on top.
The only downside... he can't take these to preschool in his lunchbox due to the nuts but it makes them extra great for home days and weekends and they're great for me for work morning tea or weekend morning teams with guests.
(I've adapted this recipe from a non-thermi recipe that was adapted from another recipe that I'm not sure the source of so I can't make any specific credits but thank you for the great start!)

Turned out great! Used 2 huge bananas 380gms and no walnuts. Added raisins instead of sultanas. I have made for my 10month old and 5 year old.
