BANANA & CHOC BUNDT CAKE WITH PEANUT CARAMEL DRIZZLE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Grease a 2.5-litre bundt tin (ours was 26cm in diameter) with some melted butter, making sure you get in all the crevices. Mix the cocoa with 50ml kettle-hot water and set aside to cool.
• Mash the bananas, then stir in the butter, milk, eggs and vanilla. In another bowl, combine the flour, bicarb, sugar and 1/2 tsp salt. Shake the bowl a few times to encourage any lumps of sugar to come to the surface, squeeze them through your fingers and mix again.
• Stir the banana mixture into the dry ingredients, then transfer half the cake mixture to another bowl. Add the cocoa mix, 50g yogurt and the chocolate chips to one bowl, and the remaining 100g yogurt and 50g peanuts to the other.
• Scrape the peanut mixture into the prepared tin, then spoon over the chocolate mixture. Swirl a skewer through the two cake mixtures to create a marbled effect. Bake on the middle shelf for 1 hr. Check the cake is cooked by inserting a skewer into the centre of the sponge - if it comes out coated in any wet mixture, return to the oven for 10 mins more, then check again. Cool for 15 mins in the tin, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Mix the caramel with 1 tbsp milk to create a drizzly icing. Once the cake is cool, drizzle over the icing and scatter with the remaining peanuts. Will keep in a tin for four days.

BANANA CHOCOLATE CHIP CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Grease an 8-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and fine sea salt.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat butter, oil, sugar, brown sugar, molasses, allspice, cinnamon, espresso and vanilla until just combined. The secret to this cake's texture is to stop mixing before the sugar is dissolved.
• Use a spatula to mix egg into butter mixture, then stir in flour mixture just to combine. Fold in bananas and chocolate chips. Scrape batter into prepared cake pan and bake until top is golden and sides begin to pull away from pan, about 25 minutes.
• Let cool for at least 20 minutes (or longer, until completely cooled), then run a thin spatula around the edges to separate from the pan. Invert onto a serving plate. Cake will keep for 1 day, covered.

• Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for about 40 to 45 minutes in a Bundt pan or 50 to 60 minutes in a loaf pan until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out with a few crumbs clinging to it. Check the cake often and if it gets too brown on top, cover with foil and continue to bake. Rotate the pan halfway through baking time. Let cool, then sift powdered sugar over top.
