This is one of our favourite banana cakes. Seasoned with cardamom that complements bananas so beautifully, it is a perfect treat for the festive season! Of course, I love that the cake is eggless too. Usually when I make this cake in the afternoons for tea, I just dust it with some icing sugar! This time however to chase the rainy day blues away, I decided to indulge and frost it too:) The frosting recipe is very easy to do, just throw it all together and blend it and you are good to go.
Ingredients:
1 cup + 4 tbsp all purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
3small bananas, ripe, mashed
3/4 cup sugar
4 tbsp butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup yogurt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp cardamom powder
Cream Cheese Frosting:
1 cup cream cheese, softened
2 tbsp butter, softened
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup icing sugar
Method:
- Sift together the flour, salt, baking powder, cardamom powder, and sugar.
- Add the mashed bananas, vanilla extract, butter, and yogurt.
- Blend all ingredients well.
- Pour into a baking pan and bake at 350F for 40-45 minutes.
- Remove and cool in the pan for 15 minutes and then on a wire rack until completely cooled.
- To make the frosting, blend together all the ingredients.
- Frost the cake as desired.
