Banana Cashew Cake (wheat flour & amp)

Bananas are the most prevalent fruits in all seasons and always we tend to face a problem of over ripe bananas hanging on the stand in the kitchen.There are many ways to finish of those bananas,some of which I have tried it out like Steamed banana cakeBanana fritters , Ban-Man Smoothie , Fruit Halwa.Though  banana cake is frequently made,but I always tend to forget a click of it and now is the time that I got this opportunity.Moreover,I added wheat flour as the base,you can use all purpose flour too.Those of the kids reluctant to have bananas will definitely love it!!






Ingredients
Wheat flour 1cup
banana 2 ripe (1 cup when blended)
lemon juice 2tsp
sugar 1 cup
butter 3/4 stick softened (100g)
eggs -2
baking soda - 3/4tsp
vanilla extract 1tsp
cashews - 1/3 cup
salt~ a pinch





Method
  • Sift the flour and add salt.
  • Blend the bananas and add the lemon juice to it.
  • Beat the eggs in a blender,add the butter and add sugar.
  • Add in the vanilla extract and cashews, baking soda and mix well.
  • Pre heat oven to 300 degrees F and pour half of the cake mix batter into it ,add the cashewnuts.
  • Add the remaining batter and top it up with cashews.
  • Place it in the oven and bake for 50- 60minutes or till the tooth pick comes out clean.
  • Cool on wire rack and slice into pieces,serve  as a healthy snack!!!!
Servings ~ 1 cake




Wishing all a Happy weekend  !!!!!
