One of the things I like to do when someone’s birthday comes up or at special event is give them some love in the form of something baked, something DELICIOUS!
So I chose the BANANA cake from Bite Me which I made before and it was super awesome and definitely my favourite banana cake ever… (for recipe click here to my previous banana post).
It is best to use ripe bananas for this cake because when the bananas ripen, it will get sweeter. The starch in the bananas turns to sugar… bananas have three natural sugars – sucrose, fructose and glucose. So the cake will get better as the days go by because the bananas will get to work…
So today, instead of me writing another results of the banana cake, because I will totally go on and on, my best friend who I made the banana birthday cake for, will give his opinion on it :)
T’s RESULTS: Mmmmmm the cake was friggen AWESOME. I ate it continuously for 3 days and each day it got even better. It was so moist and the icing made it so much better. It was probably a bad idea to make this for my birthday because it looks like you're going to have to make it for me every year because anything else would not compare.
hahaha well happy birthday again, T! love ya!
Totally random fact: Oh, did you know there is something called banana beer in Eastern Africa? It is a beer made from the fermentation mashed bananas. That is so cool… I wonder how it taste!
Now go and bake some love this week! And enjoy some sunshine!!
Bon Appetit,
Jenny
this was so friggen good. I didn't no banana bread taste better over time. no wonder toan wanted to save it. but how long can you keep it before it starts to go bad?
ReplyDeletethanks :) glad you enjoyed it sandy!
ReplyDeletehopefully you get to try more of my baked goods in the future.
you can keep the banana cake at room temp for 2-3 days, but if you want to keep it longer, you can also store in the refrigerator for up to a week (plus the banana cake tastes sooooo GOOOD when you warm it up!!).
I forgot to say that, you have to keep it covered though... in plastic wrap or in a closed container to retain the moisture and keep it yummy :)
