Banana Cake

Baked another banana cake again! Haahaa.... Tks for viewing!!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just baked this. 2nd output from my new mixer. Okie, it's banana cake again! I'm using a another recipe for this cake. I'm using half the ingredients only so the cake looks quite small.

Wonder how does it taste? Wonder Jx dare to try again? Haahaa...

Feedback from vevey: This cake is fluffier than all previous cakes! Not densed n hard... 再接再利！


This is the interior of the banana cake. Taken by vevey. (Tks vevey!)
Inside looks fluffy huh!

Recipe (Quoted: Yochana)

Ingredients
180g butter
180g fine sugar
2 extra large Eggs - beaten lightly
250g cake flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp. Bicarbonate of Soda
220g bananas - mashed
50g Dairy whip cream (can substitute with evaporated milk)
1/2 tsp Banana essence
2 bananas - slice

Method
1) Cream butter and sugar till light and creamy.
2) Pour in eggs gradually and beat till creamy.
3) Add in whip cream, mashed bananas and banana essence and mix well.
4) Add in cake flour, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda and beat for a while only.
5) Pour into an 8" round tray, and arrange sliced bananas on top.
6) Bake at 175C for about 50 to 60 mins or until cooked.

My comments for this bake:
1) Very easy recipe but baking time is quite long abt 1hr. I tested the cake w a stick, some parts still a bit wet at 50mins, so i con't to bake for another 15mins.
2) This is suppose to be a drier & fluffier cake, hope it dun look wet like my previous batches. ;)

This is the banana cake which I had baked today. Looks lousy hor. So sad... sob sob!!! Banana cake is something which I had to put in extra extra effort. This is a flop again! Will do better the next time (i hope?) heeheee...


This is the interior of the banana cake. These are my guesses for the failed cake:
1) Over-mixed the batter? (Tips from paw paw: HAND-MIX my batter!)
2) Wrong temp or did not bake long enough?
3) Too much liquid in the batter?


This is my previous batch of banana cake. Looks better huh? But taste wise... not sure if I got make any improvement. Haaahaaa....

Waiting patiently for my tasters, Vevey & Jx for comments!!! ;p

Feedback: Vevey's comment on it was good! Real or not?! Pls re-cfm!! keekee....

New updates: Since vevey say is nice, haaahaa... I will try again next time to improve on the looks of the cake!!! As I'm an idiot in decorating...
