Today was a day for baking a cake!
I needed to use up some bananas as they were starting to ripen. I had a punnet of strawberries in the fridge. I used my Mum's Banana Cake recipe and altered it a little. As I was adding strawberries and chocolate I didn't want it too sweet
Banana, Strawberry & White Chocolate Cake
1/2 cup (125g) butter
1/2 cup raw sugar
2 eggs
2 bananas, mashed
250g punnet fresh strawberries, roughly diced
1 cup white chocolate chips (dark chocolate would be delicious)
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 cups SR flour (my container has 1/2 SR plain & 1/2 SR Wholemeal flour)
1 tsp bi-carb soda dissolved in 2 tbsp milk
Preheat oven 180 oC. Line cake tin with baking paper
With an electric hand beater cream the butter and sugar
Add the eggs and beat again
Add bananas, strawberries, chocolate, vanilla, cinnamon and flour
Mix together with a spatula
Add the bi-carb soda and milk mixture to the cake batter
Mix all ingredients
Pour into cake tin. Bake for approximately 40 - 45 minutes
Allow to cool on a wire rack
Turn out of cake tin onto a pretty plate
Sprinkle with icing sugar
Cut, serve and Enjoy!
The cake was moist with a crunchy outer layer
Hope you're having a lovely Spring day
