Banana Cake using RICE COOKER.

< Nanana Bananana >

You know you’re Asian when you have rice cooker at home. There are many types of rice cooker out there and many of which does not only cooks rice but also bake cakes & cook congee.

I had a bunch of mini banana left over which are super over ripe to a stage that they are almost moulding! Banana are the sweetest when they are ‘black’ (not rotten).

Tired of the usual Banana Bread or the Banana Nutella bread (which I clearly thought I have blogged about!!) so I went online & google for “rice cooker banana cake”. Decided to try out one recipe with fewer ingredients. The ingredients & method are exactly the same as the recipe I use for the regular baked banana bread. 

INGREDIENTS 

recipe adapted from Everybody Eats Well in Flanders

3 eggs

110g sugar

110g butter, melted (I like to use oil in my banana bread/cake)

200g ripe bananas

160g all purpose flour

3/4 tsp baking powder

3/4 tsp baking soda

a pinch of salt

Sift flour, baking powder & baking soda in a medium bowl. Peel & mash bananas. Combine sugar & butter/oil till fully combined. To the sugar mixture, add eggs & salt, mix well and add in the bananas. Sift in flour mixture in three batch & slowly fold to combine. Pour mixture into rice cooker bowl and press the ‘cake’ function & if your rice cooker doesn’t have one, then press ‘cook’ function & let it cook. Once one cycle is done, repeat two more times or until your cake is done.
