There are some recipes which you would constantly to refine to achieve a better taste or one that is to your liking. This is one of them - banana cake recipe.



Incorporating fruits and vegetables in baked products are always fun. Lemon gives a refreshing tart taste and have functional properties in non-bake cakes (maintaining cake structure). Carrots cakes are simply irresistible, especially with walnuts and a hint of cinnamon and cream cheese. Berries add a lovely touch of colour and goes well with cream or custard. Bananas result in a moist, velvety cakes and again, goes oh-so-well with nuts and tea.


This recipe yields a truly moist cake as it utilises whipping cream and bananas. To get a intense banana flavour, use over-ripe bananas. Hint, their skin should be dark/with dark patches and the meat being easy to mash with just a fork.
