We had some left over bananas in the fruit bowl which were begining to go black and so i decided to make this recipe. It is a recipe that I found in the waitrose food magazine although i doubled it and added my own embellishments. These were using ginger chocolate to give some extra zing, adding more bananas and putting slices of banana and scattering granola in the bottom of the tin to give a sort of upside down pineapple cake effect. I was also forced to leave out the bicarbonate of soda as we had none in the fridge but this hasnt effected the rise, taste or texture of the cake.
Here is the recipe:
Ingredients:
1 large egg
75ml Vegetable Oil
125g Caster Sugar
3 bananas
30g rolled oats
150g plain flour
1/2 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Bicarbonate soda
1tsp ground cinnamon
40g Dark Chocolate
The Cooking
- preheat the oven to 180/gas mark 4
- butter and line a loaf tin (roughly 1 litre)
- whisk eggs, oil and sugar until thick and creamy (like mayo)
- slice and mash the bananas and whisk into the mixture - it will now look gloopy and be quite runny
- add the rest of the ingredients and stir until all are combined
- pour into the tin
- bake for 30-40 mins
Here are some photos of my finished product:
At roughly 300kcal per big serving you can afford to share this with friends and family. I would love feedback on how yours went or what you think of mine.
