There are so many banana cake recipes, but I always find that they don’t have enough banana flavor. Crushing the bananas rather than leaving them in small pieces dulls the flavor of the fruit. But doing both is the secret 🙂
Here is a recipe that is very easy to make, but which above all brings out the taste of banana.
The grated coconut gives a crunchier texture to the dough. And the white chocolate gives a caramelized aftertaste. All these ingredients help to bring out the flavor of the banana.
Ingredients
4 eggs
200g – 1 cup sugar
250g – 2 cups flour
1 packet of dry yeast (11 grams) 100g – 7 TBS of melted butter 50g ½ cup of coconut 200g of white chocolate 4 bananas
Banana flavor (option)
Recipe
Preheat the oven to 430°F (220°C).
Cut the bananas into small cubes and flour them. If ever you will have more than 4 bananas in your fridge and that they are too ripped, do not hesitate to smash it and to introduce it in your batter.
Melt the butter and add the eggs, sugar, flour, powdered coconut and yeast. Mix everything together.
Then add the white chocolate cut into small pieces with the bananas. I am buying white chocolate which has coconut inside for my part, but if you couldn’t find this specific chocolate, you could add some coconuts powder. Mix delicately.
Bake for 40 minutes at 356°F (180°C), or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
I often start baking in a very hot oven (200-210 F °) for about 10 min to give the crust a crispy texture.
Enjoy the luscious blend of banana, coconut, and white chocolate in every bite!
Important: flour the bananas or they will fall down to the bottom of the mold.
Tips: Add banana flavor or 1 yogurt to the banana. It helps to exude the banana flavor.
Add broken pieces of white chocolate.
In the oven 180 ° for 35–45 min.
