Tea time recipe: Banana cake

20th February 2019 by Expat Living 1 Min Read

https://expatliving.sg/recipe-banana-cake/

Bananas ripen very quickly in Singapore. If you can’t eat them quick enough, you can always freeze them for smoothies or you can use them to bake yourself a yummy banana cake. In case you’re looking for a recipe for the latter, here’s one from a reader. Happy baking and eating!

“It’s such an easy recipe! Not too sweet and tastes so good – I’ve gotten many compliments on it!”
– June Yap, Singaporean stay-at-home mum.

• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1½ teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
