Moreish tea time treat and what a treat it is! We enjoyed it thoroughly! I expected it to be a denser cake but no I was pleasantly surprised. BBC GoodFood Magazine.

2 medium eggs, beaten
3 1/2 ounces butter, melted
4 ounces toffee yogurt
3 1/2 ounces light muscovado sugar
7 1/8 ounces self-rising flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3 1/2 ounces pecans, roughly chopped
5 1/4 ounces toffee pieces, roughly chopped (werthers chewy candy)
Directions:

2. Butter and line the base of a loaf pan.
3. Mix together the bananas, eggs, butter, toffee yogurt and sugar, until well combined.
4. Sift the flour and baking powder together and fold into the mixture, then fold in three-quarters of the pecan nuts and half the toffees.
5. Spoon the mixture into the pan and level the top.
6. Sprinkle on the remaining nuts and toffees.
