Easy Way To Bake A Fluffy Banana Cake All By Yourself - Cameroonian Recipe
Banana Cake is one of my favourite cakes because believe me or not, my grandma bakes the most delicious and fluffy banana cake ever!
Today, she decided to bake one and I want to share her recipe with you guys. No long intro today. Let's start baking!
Bananas
Flour
Eggs
Groundnut oil
Sugar
Salt
Bicarbonate
Most of our cooking in Cameroon is based on estimations. We hardly measure. But for this cake, we used the brown cup you see in the pictures to measure the flour and groundnut oil. One of this cup is equal to one and a half glasses.
For the flour, we used two of the brown cups which is equal to three glasses of flour. The groundnut oil was almost a cup full which is equal to one and a quarter glasses of groundnut oil.
We used two eggs, four medium-size bananas and ten cubes of sugar were melted in half a cup of water.
The bicarbonate used was one eating spoon and the salt was less than a quarter eating spoon.
I hope the measurements make sense, lol. Let's bake it!
Put a pot on the fire (we used a wood fire) and put in three stones in the pot. Cover it and allow it to heat up while you mix the cake.
Sieve the flour, bicarbonate and salt in a bowl.
Peel and mash the bananas.
Put sugar in some water to melt.
Add the mashed bananas to the flour. Add groundnut oil and sugar solution. Mix well.
If the mixture is still too thick, add a little water and mix.
Break and beat the eggs then add to the mixture. Mix well till smooth.
Rub some oil in the baking pan and pour in the mixture.
Put the baking pan on the stones in the pot and cover it. Make sure that you use a pot with a lid that covers well. Constantly make the fire under the pot to burn well.
Bake for at least 45 minutes before opening the pot to check if it's ready.
When ready, allow it to cool then slice and serve.
Hope you try out this fantastic banana cake recipe. Thanks for reading. As always, I'll see you in my next one.
