Description

This banana cake is sugar-free, wheat-free and dairy-free, you make it with just a fork and even without sugar or sweetener, it is very sweet.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/4 cups mashed banana (300 g)
  • 3 eggs (use 4 if they are very small)
  • 1/3 cup of vegetable oil (80 ml)
  • 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar (15 ml – optional)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon + small pinch of salt (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla essence (optional)
  • 1 cup of oatmeal (120 g)
  • 1/2 cup of cornstarch (55 g)
  • 1 chopped banana (65 g – optional)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder (15 g)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180ºC and grease a round pan with a hole in the middle with 23 cm with a little oil and sprinkle rice flour.
  2. In a bowl, mash the banana with a fork until it forms a puree with some pieces.
  3. Add the eggs and mix well.
  4. Add the oil, cinnamon, vanilla and vinegar and stir until smooth.
  5. Now add the oatmeal and cornstarch and mix well, cleaning the sides of the bowl with a spatula so that everything is well incorporated.
  6. Add the chopped banana and baking powder and stir quickly.
  7. Transfer the dough to the previously greased pan and bake in a preheated oven. 180ºC for approximately 25 minutes, do the toothpick test, when it comes out clean it is ready.
  8. Let it cool before unmolding.

Notes

  • You can process the dough in the blender, but when adding the dry ingredients, beat quickly. If you beat the oats too much, the cake will be heavy.
  • You can use other spices such as ground cloves, nutmeg, fennel and cardamom, the spices sweeten the recipe without needing sugar.
  • If you prefer a flavor more pronounced sweet add 1/4 cup sugar or sweetener of your preference.
  • I do not recommend replacing or excluding eggs.
  • You can use up to 1/2 cup of chopped dried fruit, raisins, walnuts, sunflower seeds, chestnuts, etc.
