A.B.C Cake

The man in the house has been bugging me to make him some bananas cake, finally I fulfilled his wish today! :D hahaha you must be wondering why called it A.B.C Cake? This is actually a simple banana cake with a twist ie. with added ground almond, chia seeds and of course the bananas. Therefore I called it Almond Banana Chia Seeds Cake in short A.B.C Cake ^0^


Original recipe asked for icing sugar frosting on top, but I opted a healthier version by topping with lots of almond flakes :D

Moist and tender crumbs and I love the crunch of the chia seeds 



Ingredient

  • 3 eggs
  • 120gm light brown sugar
  • 125ml rice bran oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla paste
  • 180gm self-raising flour
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 60gm almond meal
  • 2 heap tbsp chia seeds
  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 carrot, peeled & finely grated
  • handful of almond flakes

Method
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs and sugar until frothy. Whisk in oil and vanilla.
  2. Sift flour and ground cinnamon over the egg mixture and fold lightly. Stir in almond meal and chia seeds.
  3. Lastly fold in mashed bananas and grated carrots till well incorporated. 
  4. Pour batter into a lined 7" cake pan. Sprinkle almond flakes over the surface. Bake in preheated oven at 180 deg cel for 35 mins until golden brown and skewer inserted comes out clean. 
  5. Cool in pan for 10 mins before unmoulding onto a wire rack to cool completely.
