Method
-
step 1
Heat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Beat the butter, sugar, flours, baking powder, eggs and banana together. Stir in the nuts and spoon into a lined and buttered 450g loaf tin.

step 2
Bake for 1¼ - 1½ hours or until a skewer comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes in the tin then lift out and cool on a rack.
-
step 3
Mix the icing sugar and most of the passion fruit juice to make an icing that will drizzle easily. Leave the seeds in if you like, or sieve them out.
-
step 4
Drizzle the icing over the cake and use the remaining seeds and pulp to serve.
