I did mention that I helped my friend to proof read her literature review last week, and in return, she sent me this easy peasy banana cake recipe. So I baked a loaf of banana cake, using the African red-ish brown banana (I pretty sure is from Africa) I bought from the market. The banana itself is meant to be use for baking, I assumed the banana had a higher amount of sugar than the normal one, so I lessened half of my sugar amount for baking. Turned out, the banana loaf is perfect, thanks to the baking powder, it rise and I am able to take it out clean and easily from the base. It is all good, the sweetness, the texture, the smell~ This recipe is real good! As soon as I finished one slice, I realized…..oh my, I forgot to add in butter!!! Wow, no wonder in terms of banana cake, this one is not that moist…but guess what? It still taste good, and healthier! FYI, recipe:
2 eggs 270 g light/soft brown sugar 200 g banana (ripe): 2 big bananas or 3 small bananas 280 g flour 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp baking powder 1 tsp ground ginger 1 tsp cinnamon 140 g margarine/butter Method: 1. Beat the eggs and add brown sugar. 2. Add mashed banana to the mixture, mix well. 3. Add the rest dry ingredient into the mixture. 4. Melt the margarine/butter and stir well into the mixture. 5. Pour the mixture into greased loaf tin, bake at 170oC for 1 hour if in a loaf tin, 30 minutes if in muffin tin.
