Dark chocolate banana cinnamon cake

5.2K

I’m always up for a big, moist cake as a back-to-school snack! With bananas, chocolate and cinnamon that will perfume the whole house, it’s a delight. It’s ready for the oven in just a few minutes, but you’ll need a little patience before devouring it, as it bakes for 1h30.

For a cake :

• 225g salted butter
• 90g neutral oil
• 190g of brown sugar
• 5 large eggs (250g total weight without shells)
• 210g whole milk
• 290g of flour
• 6g of baking powder
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
• 250g banana flesh (about 3 bananas)
• 150g chocolate chunks or chips

Melt the butter, then add the oil and brown sugar.

Mix well, then add the eggs and milk.

Mix, then add the flour, baking powder and cinnamon powder.

Peel and chop the bananas.

Pour in the banana flesh and chocolate chips and mix one last time.

Pour into a buttered and floured 30cm-long cake tin or circular mould as shown here.

Bake for 1H30 at 150°C.

To be enjoyed as a snack or for breakfast.
