best banana cake


I've made quite a few banana bread/cakes in my day, but this one is by far the yummiest. It's very simple and the results are fantastic.The texture is very fluffy but at the same time moist, I feel like having some more right now!



ingredients

  • 2 eggs, whisked
  • 1/3 cup buttermilk (or 1/6 cup milk + 1/6 cup plain yoghurt)
  • 1/3 cup sunflower oil
  • 1 1/2 cup mashed ripe bananas (i used 4 ripe bananas)
  • 1/2 cup white sugar + 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg

directions

Preheat oven to 175 degrees celsius. Grease your cake pan with butter.

Blend together the eggs, buttermilk, oil and bananas.

Sift together the sugar, flour, baking powder and spices. Add to banana mixture. Mix well.

Pour into prepared loaf pan and bake about 40 mins or until you smell banana cake in the kitchen and a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
