To make the caramelised apples, melt the butter and sugar together gently in a pan until the sugar has melted. Add the apples and fry gently for 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until soft and golden.
Step 2
Meanwhile, mash the banana well with the oil, vanilla and lemon juice. Sift the flour on top with the baking powder and bicarb, and then gradually whisk in the milk.
