Banana Raisin Cake

Whenever I see over ripe bananas left on my table, the best use of it I can think of, is making either banana cake or banana muffins. Kids love it. And you don't want to trash the overripe bananas.





Ingredients
  • Over Ripe Bananas - 2-3
  • All Purpose Flour - 1 cup
  • Whole Wheat Flour - 1/4 cup
  • Eggs - 2
  • Brown Sugar - 1 cup
  • Baking Soda - 1 tsp
  • Vanilla Extract - 1 tsp
  • Black Raisins - 2 tbsp
  • Vegetable Oil or Butter - 1/2 cup

Directions
  • Preheat the oven at 350 deg F. 
  • Mash the bananas and keep aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, sugar and oil ( or melted butter ) together for a couple of minutes.
  • Now add the mashed bananas and vanilla extract into the bowl and whisk once again. 
  • Now add the flour , baking soda and raisins into the mixing bowl and whisk again  till the mixture is well incorporated.
  • Now, grease the cake pan with the oil spray. 
  • Pour this mixture into the cake pan.


  • Bake for 45 minutes or till the inserted toothpick comes out clean. 
  • Take out the cake from the pan and let it cool.

  • Cut it in desired shape and size upon cooling.



Note: : 
  • I have used the combination of all purpose flour and wheat flour. However, you could use the entire 1 1/4 cup of all purpose OR  entire 1 1/4 cup of wheat flour instead.
