Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon powder
- 3 medium Ripe bananas
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Milk
- 0.5 cups Chopped nuts (almonds or walnuts)
- 0.25 cups Rolled oats
- 0.5 cups Banana chips (broken into small pieces)
- 1 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 3 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Banana extract (or banana puree)
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or prepare it with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon powder. Set aside.
3. In another bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter. Mix well.
4. Beat the eggs into the wet mixture one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract and milk.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Stir gently until just combined; avoid overmixing to keep the cake fluffy.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
7. In a small bowl, combine chopped nuts, rolled oats, and banana chips to make the 'Crunchy N Dizi' topping. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the cake batter.
8. Bake the cake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. While the cake cools, prepare the banana whipped cream. In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add powdered sugar and banana extract (or puree), and continue whipping until stiff peaks form.
10. Once the cake is cooled, serve slices with a dollop of banana whipped cream on top. Garnish with extra banana chips if desired.
