    Notes

    • You can even add the flour into the wet ingredients and pulse for few times to make the cake batter. This way you don’t need to dirty another bowl. But make sure you don’t over blend the batter.
    • You can use melted butter instead of oil.
    • Whole wheat flour can be used instead of plain flour. Use same amount (1 cup) of whole wheat flour.
    • Use ripe bananas or over ripe bananas which are literally black in colour for the cake. Pumpkin seeds is optional, you can skip it if you need. Instead of pumpkin seeds, you can use any toppings like flax seeds, walnuts, oatmeal.
    • I haven’t made this cake without eggs, So I am not sure if the cake will turn out good without eggs.

    Variations

    • You can add chopped nuts like walnuts, almonds, cashews, pumpkin seeds can be added into the batter to make it banana nut cake.
    • Dried fruits likes raisins, kishmish, sultanas, cranberries can be used.
    • 1 tbsp of Chia seeds can be added into the batter to make it banana chia cake.
    • Instead of pumpkin seeds, you can use any toppings like flax seeds, walnuts, oatmeal.
