Ingredients
- 1 cup All purpose flour
- 1 cup Butter milk
- 1/3 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 tbsp Polenta
- 1/4 tsp Flaked salt
- 1/4 tsp Soda (heaped)

Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, salt, brown sugar, cinnamon powder, and polenta. Set aside.
- Peel the banana and mash it with a fork until smooth and mushy.
- Lightly whisk the egg, then add it to the mashed banana. Stir in the rest of the wet ingredients — buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract (leave out the water for now). Mix until well combined.
