Just mixed it up into a smooth batter and bake to perfection for 35 mins and viola your delicious and yummilicious chocolate banana cake is ready to be devoured.
Don’t have an oven? no worries! Still you can savour this cake by baking it using a pressure cooker or a kadhai over gas top. Just preheat the cooker/kadhai for 5-10 mins. Put a stand for the cake tin. If using a pressure cooker remove the gasket and whistles form the cover. Cover it and bake at lower heat for 40-45 mins. Baking time takes longer in pressure cooker compared to oven.

Hi…which bananas are we supposed to use…. Robustaa(green skin)or the other banana( yellow skin)
Hi Parvathi, I have used Robustaa variety
Hey I tried this cake and it was awesome!! Made in a heart mould. Can you tell the size of the loaf tin which you used for this recipe?

Hi Akum, I baked this with my boys today! They totally loved it! My whole house is smelling heavenly:-)! THANK YOU!!
Thank you so much Laliach for the lovely feedback, I am glad you liked it
We followed your recipe – it came out very well – soft, moist, right amount of sweetness and very tasty- only deviation is, we used butter instead of Oil. I am not sure what difference would it make with Oil. Any thoughts
Thanks much smita for the lovely feedback, I am glad you liked it… there will be difference in texture, oil cakes will have softer lighter texture and moist
Hi Akum, i have caster sugar.will the amount be same as of cane sugar?
Yes
Dear Akum… thanks for this wonderful recipe… I tried this & now it’s in my favourite bakes list… my husband hates the taste of banana bread don’t know why… but for this one he gobbled half the cake … the texture was perfect & taste yummy & top of all healthy … big thanks to you
Thank you so much poonam for trying out the recipe and for the lovely feedback… I am so glad your family loved it 🙂❤
Can you please tell me that how much was 1 cup in grams. Thanks in advance.
Also, can we use vanilla essence in place of vanilla extract? Does it make any difference?
Yes you can use vanilla essence too
