    Ingredients

    • Whole Wheat Flour -1.5 Cups
    • Ripe Banana - 2 large or 2 cups mashed
    • Baking Soda - 1/2 tsp
    • Baking Powder - 1 Tsp
    • Salt - 1/8 Tsp
    • Broken nuts- 1/4 cup
    • White sugar/ Brown Sugar - 1/2 cup
    • Vanilla essence - 1 tsp
    • Olive oil/sunflower oil - 2/3 cup
    • *I just halved the recipe measurements and tried

    Instructions

    • Measure and Sieve the whole wheat flour and mix well with baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Also, preheat the oven to 180 degrees C for 10 minutes.
    • Measure and keep all the other ingredients ready. Take a ripe banana and cut them into slices.
    • Mash the bananas well with a fork. Alternatively, you can blend the chopped banana pieces in a blender to puree them. Once the bananas are well mashed, add sugar.
    • Then add oil followed by vanilla essence. Stir it well with a hand whisk until the sugar is completely dissolved. Mix well so that the oil is mixed evenly.
    • Once all the wet ingredients are mixed well, add the sieved whole wheat flour mixture to the wet ingredients.
    • Gently fold everything well for 10-15 seconds. Don't over mix. Then add crushed nuts to the mix and give a stir. The final mixture should be thick.
    • Grease a cake pan with oil. Pour the mixture into the cake tin and gently tape it. Bake in the preheated oven at 180 deg C for 35 -40 minutes (baking time depends on the size of the cake pan and oven) at 180° Celsius till a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow cooling in the tray for 5 minutes once done. Once the cake is warm, cut into pieces and serve!

    Notes :

    • For small babies, finely chop the nuts or powder them to avoid choking.
    • Don't over mix after adding the dry ingredients, fold them for 10-15 seconds.
    • This banana cake stays well for four days at room temperature and keeps good for a week if stored in the refrigerator.
    • You could use any nuts of your choice or even chocolate chips.
    • Mixing and measurements are most important for the perfect cake.

              I have made this cake earlier, and it came out excellent!

              I plan to bake more today. Can I keep the extra batter in the fridge and bake it after the first batch is done?

            • Kalyani

              May 16, 2019 at 10:18 pm

              Sure, you can. Preserve the batter without adding baking soda, lemon juice/vinegar, and baking powder. Add it just 10 mins before baking.

      I have tried the cake earlier- it used to come out good.
      But this time the cake didn’t taste good at all.
      It seemed undercooked even though I did the toothpick test.
      I followed the same exact recipe.
      Any idea why?

        If the cake is cooked around the outside but not in the inside, then keep it back into the oven and cover tightly in aluminum foil. Bake for another 5-10 mins and check. also, check out oven temperature if its correct
