Ingredients 📝
- 20g butter (about 1 ½ tbsp)
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 egg (room temperature)
- 50g white sugar (about ¼ cup)
- 50ml vegetable oil (about 3 ½ tbsp)
- 100ml milk (at room temperature)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 130g all-purpose flour (about 1 cup)
- 20g unsweetened cocoa powder (about 3 tbsp)
- 8g baking powder (about 2 tsp)
- 3 ripe bananas (cut in half lengthwise)
- A pinch of salt
Step-by-Step Instructions 🥣
Step 1: Mix the wet ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, white sugar, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and milk until everything is smooth and well combined.
Step 2: Add the dry ingredients
In a sieve, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Sift gently into the wet mixture. Fold the two together carefully just until combined. (Overmixing is the enemy of a soft, fluffy cake!)
Step 3: Caramelise the bananas
In a heavy-based pan, melt the butter and brown sugar over low heat. Stir patiently until the sugar melts into the butter to form a silky caramel. Your kitchen will smell incredible at this point!
Turn off the heat and arrange the banana halves cut side down into the caramel.
Step 4: Pour in the batter
Spread the chocolate batter evenly over the bananas, covering them completely.
Step 5: Cook low and slow
Turn the heat back on low (about level 2). Cover with a ventilated lid and let it cook gently for about 30 minutes. The cake is ready when the top looks dry and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Step 6: Flip and enjoy
Let it cool for 5 minutes, then place a plate on top of the pan and flip it over. Carefully lift the pan to reveal the glossy, caramelised bananas now sitting proudly on top of your cake.
Serve warm with ice cream if you like (seriously, it’s heavenly that way) or let it cool and enjoy as a snack.
