Banana Cake

Number-1 Banana Cake

Ingredients:
310 g all-purpose flour
10 g baking soda
1 g salt
115 g unsalted butter ( I used margarine sbb butter pinishhh )
120 g white sugar
80 g light brown sugar
2 eggs
4 ripe bananas, mashed
160 ml buttermilk ( 155ml milk + 5ml vinegar/lemon juice )
*60 g chopped walnuts ( I didn’t add in any nuts sbb I like my banana cake to be plain )

How to make:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour 2 - 8 inch round pans. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, soda and salt; set aside.
2. In a large bowl, cream butter, white sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Mix in the bananas. Add flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk to the creamed mixture. Stir in chopped walnuts. Pour batter into the prepared pans.
3. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove from oven, and place on a damp tea towel to cool. After the cake has cooled off a little bit, I wrapped the cake in cling wrap and left it overnight.

** I frosted the cake with chocolate ganache - an idea I got from one of the reviewers. Yum Yum! You can’t go wrong when it comes to banana + chocolate
** I prefer to chill the cake two times before serving; one is before you frost the cake approx. 20-30minutes.. the second time is after you’ve frosted the cake approx 15 minutes ( just to let the frosting set a little bit. You don’t want runny frostings on the cake, do ya! )
** I altered the recipe a bit; lessen the sugar and soda bicarbonate. I don’t really like that soda-ish aftertaste )
