Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4. Grease a 2lb loaf tin with some butter, line the base with baking parchment, then grease this as well.
In a large bowl, mix together the butter, sugar and egg, then slowly mix in the flour and baking powder. Peel, then mash the bananas. Now mix everything together with the nuts and milk.
Pour the mixture into the tin and bake for 1 hour, or until a skewer comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool on a wire rack before removing from the loaf tin.
The loaf can now be wrapped tightly in cling film and frozen for up to 1 month. Defrost and warm through before serving.
Serve warm in thick slices topped with vanilla ice cream.
