Ingredients
Wet Ingredients
- 4 Bananas overripe, medium-sized; mashed
- 1/2 cup Jaggery can substitute with 1/2 cup granulated white sugar or brown sugar
- 2/3 cup Oil neutral-flavored oil like rice bran or sunflower oil
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
Dry Ingredients
- 1.5 cup Whole Wheat Flour approximately 375ml, whole
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
- 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/4 tsp Salt fine sea salt or himalayan pink salt
Optional Add-ins
- 1/4 cup Walnuts chopped; can substitute with sunflower seeds or other nuts/seeds
Instructions
Preheat & Prep
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Peel and mash the overripe bananas until smooth using a fork, blender, or potato masher.
Combine Wet Ingredients
- In a large bowl, combine the mashed bananas, jaggery, oil, and vanilla extract. Mix well until a smooth paste forms.
Combine Dry Ingredients
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Combine Wet and Dry
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a circular motion. Be careful not to overmix.
Add Mix-ins
- Stir in the chopped walnuts (or your chosen nuts/seeds).
Bake the Cake
- Grease a 9-inch round baking pan with oil. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and tap gently to remove air bubbles.
Baking & Cooling
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for a few minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Perfect Eggless Banana Cake
- Banana Ripeness Matters: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cake will be. Look for bananas with brown spots.
- Don't Overmix: Overmixing the batter can lead to a tough cake. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Check for Doneness: Use a toothpick to test for doneness. If it comes out clean, the cake is ready. If not, bake for a few more minutes.
- Get Creative with Add-ins: Experiment with different nuts, seeds, chocolate chips, or spices to customize your cake.
