Rather than another banana bread recipe, here’s a delicious and yet healthy banana cake recipe for your family and friends.
PREP TIME: 25 Min
BAKE TIME: 45-50 Min
READY IN: ~ 1 Hr 15 Min
SERVINGS: 10
INGREDIENTS
* 2 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
* 1 tsp baking powder
* 1 tsp baking soda
* 2 cup jaggery
* 1/2 cup butter
* 1 cup milk
* 2 eggs lightly beaten
* 2 mashed bananas
* 1 tsp vanilla
* 1 cup crunchy peanut butter
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat the oven to 160 deg C.
2. Coat a pan with butter to grease it.
3. Mix flour, jaggery, peanut butter, melted butter with a wide spatula in a bowl till it becomes a crumbly mixture. Reserve one cup of mixture for later use.
4. Make a small well right in the middle of the mixture and add milk, eggs, mashed bananas, vanilla, baking Powder and baking soda.
5. Mix all the ingredients well into a batter.
6. Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and top it with the reserved crumble mixture.
7. Bake the cake for about 40-45 minutes and ensure that the top mixture (crumble layer) does not get burnt.
8. Check if the cake is ready by inserting a toothpick after 40 minutes. If it comes out clean, it’s ready to be taken out of the oven.
9. Place on a wire rack to cool and then remove the cake from the pan. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Great recipe, I used sugar instead of jaggery and it turned out fine. Add a little extra leavening agent (baking soda or powder) if you add extra bananas to ensure that it rises.

what size pan?? or does it make 2 loafs?
Comment by Trey on 7 May 2010:
I tried making this and I would suggest using 2 loaf pans. I used one and it has been overflowing for the last 20 minutes and made a huge mess in my oven. I used 1 and a half tsp of baking soda rather than both baking soda and baking powder.

great recipe. took a little longer to cook than the recipe said, but that’s probably because of my oven. made a frosting for it out of powdered sugar, brown sugar, vanilla extract, heavy whipping cream, rum and lemon juice if you have it.
