Easy banana cake recipe!

  • INGREDIENTS
  • 150g self raising flour (Substitute for : 145g all-purpose flour + 1 and1/2 teaspoons baking powder + 1/2 teaspoon salt)
  • 1 over ripe banana
  • 150g caster sugar

  • 2 drops vanilla essence(optional
  • Preheat oven at 170ÂșC
  •  Melt the butter in the microwave or leave it to soften at room temperature prior to baking time. Then place in a bowl with the sugar and cream together.
    Tip: You can melt the butter and sugar together in a small saucepan, to make it faster.*  Add the banana and mash it as you mix the batter.You can mash it separately before adding to the bowl

  • Add the eggs and the vanilla essence  and mix thoroughly until well blended.* Then gradually stir in the flour and also add the milk. Mix thoroughly until the batter is pretty smooth and light.

  • Pour into a greased pan and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes or until lightly brown.(I grease my pan with butter and then dust with a little flour) 

  • To check if the cake is ready , simply dip a fork or a bamboo skewer into it;if the skewer comes out dry, then your banana cake is ready. Enjoy!
