Banana Cake

I finally found the banana cake recipe which I have always wanted! The cake turned out soft, sweet, and moist. 

Ingredients:

2 cups Plain Flour
1 1/2 cups Mashed Bananas (equivalent to 3 bananas)
1 1/2 cups Castor Sugar
250gram Salted Butter
4 Eggs
4 tablespoons Milk
1 teaspoon Vanilla Essence
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
1 teaspoon Baking Soda aka Bicarbonate of Soda


~ Step 1 ~

Mix butter and sugar in a mixing bowl. For butter to melt quickly, microwave for 30 seconds first.

~ Step 2 ~

Add in eggs (beaten), vanilla essence, and milk.


~ Step 3 ~ 

Next, put bananas in a plastic bag. You may get your child to help you mash them. The mashed bananas made up to 1 cup, but it doesn't matter as I used 3 bananas as per recipe.


~ Step 4 ~

Sift flour, baking soda, and baking powder before pouring into the mashed bananas. Ensure that batter is well whisked.


~ Step 5 ~

The cake batter fitted perfectly into my baking tray of 26cm by 20cm by 6cm. Bake in a preheated oven at 160 degrees for an hour. You may also check by inserting a skewer into the middle of the cake. If it comes out clean, then your cake is done. Once the top layer turns brown, cover with a piece of aluminium foil. 

 
~ Step 6 ~

Enjoy your moist banana cake! I can almost finish all of them.
