Breads & Bakes

Banana&chocolate cake

Ingredients:

  • 2 eggs

  • 100 g sugar

  • 55 g Cornflour (100% pure, sifted)

  • 120 g high-quality cocoa powder

  • 5 g baking soda

  • 30 g canola oil

  • 200 g banana, mashed

  • ½ cup water


Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 170°C.

  2. In a bowl, mix the Cornflour, cocoa powder, and baking soda.

  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and sugar for about 30 seconds using a spoon or hand whisk.

  4. Add the mashed banana, water, and oil. Mix well.

  5. Add the dry ingredients and mix until the batter is smooth. (Batter will be thin.)

  6. Pour into a greased loaf pan (English cake pan) and bake for 25–30 minutes.
    The cake is ready when a toothpick inserted comes out moist but not wet.


Notes:

  • The batter is thin and not suitable for a springform pan — use a closed loaf pan.
  • If making muffins, silicone molds are recommended.

  • It’s best to sift the cornflour.

  • Do not substitute chocolate for cocoa in this recipe due to cornflour’s unique texture.

Enjoy!
