This banana oil cake is moist, filled with sweet banana, delicious walnuts and tasty chocolate chips. It can be easily turned into a dairy free cake too.

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 12

270 gr all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
1 egg
125 gr granulated sugar
100 gr brown sugar
120 ml oil
2 tbsp milk (or water for dairy free cake)
0,5 tsp vanilla
3 ripe bananas
40 gr chocolate chips (omit or use dairy free chocolate chips)
30 gr walnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 180° Celsius.
  • Line a 25 cm square baking pan (see notes) with parchment paper.
  • Make sure that the parchment paper is hanging over the sides of the pan. This will help you easily remove the banana cake after baking.

  • Finely mash the bananas and add together with dry ingredients (flour, baking soda and salt) to the batter. Mix until combined. You will have a thick banana batter by now.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts.
  • Pour the mixture into the baking pan.
  • Bake for around 40 minutes (see notes) in the middle of the oven until a knife inserted in the center of the banana cake comes out clean.
  • Let it cool before serving.
  • Enjoy!

One-Bowl Banana Chocolate Chip Walnut Cake image

"The best cake I've ever had" according to my 8-y-o. No fat either (well...except for optional chocolate chips!).

Provided by roos4136

Categories     Dessert

Time 55m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 bananas (organic, which tend t be smaller)
2 eggs
3/4 cup sugar (try turbinado, which has molasses)
1/2 cup applesauce (flavored OK)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/3 cups whole wheat pastry flour (all-purpose OK)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup mini chocolate chip
2/3 cup walnuts, chopped

Steps:

  • Mash bananas; push to side, leaving a space along bowl's side.
  • Beat eggs along empty side of bowl, then combine with bananas.
  • Stir in sugar, applesauce, vanilla and salt.
  • Shake lightly and evenly across surface of batter, the flour and soda; mix just enough to incorporate.
  • Stir in chocolate chips and walnuts. Go easy on chocolate chips because they can overwhelm the cake.
  • Pour into greased and floured 7"x11" pyrex glass baking dish (or muffin tins, bundt rounds, etc).
  • Bake 40 minutes at 350-degrees (less for muffins, etc.).
  • Frosting is unnecessary but cream cheese (8 oz) & butter (4 Tb) with any flavoring (any syrup, orange concentrate) is yummy.

BANANA CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE CHIPS AND WALNUTS



Banana Cake With Chocolate Chips and Walnuts image

Provided by David Latt

Categories     breakfast, brunch, easy, lunch, dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 ripe bananas
1 1/2 tablespoons baking soda
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon sweet butter, room temperature
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
2/3 cup half and half
2 1/2 cups flour
Pinch of sea salt
Pinch of cayenne
1/2 cup raw walnuts
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Melt 1 tablespoon of butter and paint the inside of a 9 x 3 round cake pan, then put the pan in the freezer for 30 minutes. (The frozen butter prevents the batter from sticking to the pan.) On a cookie sheet bake the walnuts in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes, turning every 5 minutes or so; let cool, roughly chop, and set aside.
  • In a bowl mash the bananas with a fork, add the baking soda and vanilla. Stir well and set aside. In a mixer use the whisk to cream together the softened butter and both sugars. Add the eggs, mashed bananas, half and half and whisk until blended. Mix in the flour half a cup at a time, being careful not to over-beat. Remove the bowl from the mixer. Use a rubber spatula to blend in the walnuts and chocolate chips. Pour the batter into the buttered cake pan; it will only fill the pan half-way.
  • Bake the cake in a 350 oven for 60-70 minutes, turning the pan every 20 minutes so the cake cooks evenly. Test to see if the cake is done by inserting a wooden skewer. If the top is browning too quickly, lightly lay a sheet of aluminum foil over the top. When the skewer comes out clean, take the cake out of the oven and place it on a wire rack for 30 minutes. Remove the cake from the pan, putting it back on the wire rack to finish cooling.
  • Just before serving dust the top with powdered sugar and shaved chocolate. Serve warm or at room temperature with vanilla ice cream or freshly whipped cream.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your banana cake will be. Brown or black bananas are the best option.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender cake.
  • Gradually add the eggs, one at a time: This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Add the dry ingredients in three additions, alternating with the milk: This will help to prevent the batter from becoming too thick or lumpy.
  • Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts gently: This will help to prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the cake.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

This banana cake with chocolate chips and walnuts is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion.
