Time 1h35m

Yield Makes 1 large loaf cake

Number Of Ingredients 12

100ml sunflower oil, plus extra to grease
175g caster sugar
175g self-raising flour
½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
4 tbsp cocoa powder

  • This recipe was provided by professional chefs and has been scaled down from a bulk recipe provided by a restaurant. The Food Network Kitchens chefs have not tested this recipe, in the proportions indicated, and therefore, we cannot make any representation as to the results.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cake will be. If you don't have any ripe bananas on hand, you can ripen them quickly by placing them in a brown paper bag with an apple for a few hours.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make your cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a bundt pan: A bundt pan is the traditional pan for baking banana cake. It gives the cake a beautiful shape and allows for even baking.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • Serve the cake with your favorite toppings: Banana cake is delicious on its own, but it can also be served with a variety of toppings, such as whipped cream, ice cream, or chocolate sauce.

Conclusion:

This very chocolate banana cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion.
