Hello! For breakfast today I made a blueberry and banana eggy bread. It was delicious. So today I'm going to tell you how to make it.

Don't use too much baking powder - things could rise - or fall - too quickly. 3. Don't rush the process of cake baking (especially when it comes to waiting for                                                       the cake to be cooked!) 4.
