Today i decided to bake banana cake for my family; they love banana cake. Since i didnt have any ripe bananas at home today, i went out to do some grocery shoppin and also i bought myself a cute pretty lil plate. I was a lil worried bout how the cake would turn out for the previous Peanut Butter cupcake didnt turn out very well. It was edible but not like how i'd wanted the texture to feels like when i bite into it.
I didnt want to bake a plain banana cake so i decided to add a lil twist to it; chocolate chips with almond and chocolate rice as the toppings.
So i went about searchin for the banana cake recipe; found one but as i was mixing all the ingredients together, i kinda fine-tuned it a lil. Here's the revised recipe :
INGREDIENTS:
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 egg
1/2 cup corn oil
1/2 cup of plain yogurt ( i used the whole yogurt cup; 140g)
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 cup mashed ripe bananas ( i used 5 small ripe bananas)
2/4 cup chocolate chips
1/4 cup milk
TOPPING:
1/4 - 2/4 cup of sliced almonds
1/8 cup of chocolate chips
METHODS:
1) In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
2) Combine the egg, oil, yogurt and vanilla in another bowl .
3) Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.
4) Fold in bananas and chocolate chips.
5) Grease the non-stick bakeware.
6) Pour the batter and top it up with almond slices and chocolate rice.
7) Bake at 177 degrees C for 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
And here's the end result of my Banana Chocolate Chips with Almond & Chocolate Rice cake and my newly bought cute lil pretty plate :)
That banana bread looks great!
