I am very excited to post this recipe as it was lost for a few weeks. I made these scones a few times about a month ago. The recipe I might have never written it down. Or, chances are high, I did and just can’t find it anymore. I keep my recipes either in files on my computer or printed out or hand written, and then they could be just anywhere. I’ve got piles of stuff almost everywhere, several on my desk, in various drawers, on the coffee table in the lounge, on the dining table (only when no guests are here). These piles include newspapers, magazines, printed recipes, wet wipes (for my two children) paper tissues, toys, work stuff, important documents…….piled chaos, in fact. I feel bad about it but I simply cannot find time to put everything back in its place all the time. The only comforting thing is, that nothing gets lost in this house. That’s in fact a remark my mum made once. She comes to visit us from Germany twice a year. According to her, things are often in exactly the same place as during her last visit.
Anyway, here is the recipe of my beloved banana cherry scones. I love the sweetish taste of the banana in the scones and the fresh and sour taste of the dried cherries. Just the right thing to start the day with.

In another bowl, combine beaten egg with olive oil and mashed bananas. Pour wet ingredients onto dry ingredients and stir until well combined. The batter is pretty wet.
