Why you have to make banana bread - NOW

Hi there

There are multiple reasons, why you would want to make banana bread right now in this moment:

• you are idle
• you are hungry
• you want to make a gift for someone else
• you are happy
• you are sad
• all of the above

And the most obvious one: you bought some bananas, some days ago, because you intended to live healthy and stop eating sugary junk food. But we all know that it's not as simple as that. The bananas know that too and that's the reason, they're laying around somewhere in your kitchen and getting browner by the day.

But, don't feel sorry for the bananas, the're better in the form of gooey, chocolaty banana bread anyway

The basic recipe is for 3 bananas. But maybe you have 5 bananas laying around. or maybe just one. But honestly, nobody wants to calculate everything, so use the app and let it calculate the required ingredients for you.

You can even decide, if you want to use normal units (gram) or the (in my opinion) slightly silly american units (cups).

Basically we just take the basic recipe, grab the number of bananas and multiply by the ratio of the actual number of bananas and 3 (beacuse 3 is the number of bananas in the basic recipe).

Example plot

banana <- 5 #normally we grab the input here, but for the presentation we just set it to 5
        ingredients <- c("VegetableOil", 
                         "BrownSugar", 
                         "Flour", 
                         "BakingPowder", 
                         "ChocolateChips")
        amount <- c(75, 
                    100, 
                    225, 
                    6, 
                    75)
        amount <- round((amount / 3)*banana,2)

        unit <- c("gram", "gram", "gram", "gram", "gram")

        ingr <- data.frame(ingredients, amount, unit)
        ingr

     ingredients amount unit
1   VegetableOil 125.00 gram
2     BrownSugar 166.67 gram
3          Flour 375.00 gram
4   BakingPowder  10.00 gram
5 ChocolateChips 125.00 gram
