I came across this Banana Cake recipe from a post in Heavenly Cuisines which uses 1/2 teaspoon of vinegar. Overwhelmed with curiosity, I decided to try it out since I have some ripe bananas. The outcome is superb, moist with strong banana taste.
Ingredients:
270g. ripe bananas (peeled)
170g. plain flour (sifted)
70g. caster sugar (reduce to 50g. if you prefer less sweet as the ripe bananas are sweet)
70g. brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 tsp. baking powder (sifted)
1/2 tsp. baking soda (sifted)
1/2 tsp. vinegar
50g. unsalted butter (melted)
Methods:
- Mash the bananas in a bowl and set aside.
- Using a stand mixer, beat the eggs with both sugar until sugar has dissolved.
- Add in vinegar followed by melted butter and continue to beat well.
- Add in the mashed banana and mix using a rubber spatula.
- Add in the sifted flour with baking powder and baking soda. Mix well until combined.
- Pour the mixture into a loaf pan lined with parchment paper.
- Bake in a preheated oven of 170 degree Celsius for about an hour or when a wooden skewer inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean.
- Remove from oven and let it cool down for about 5 minutes in the pan.
- Lift the cake out of the pan using the overhang parchment paper and continue to let it cool completely and serve.
I adapted this recipe from Carrie Lum.
