Eggless Chocolate Banana Cake
(adapted from egglesscooking.com)
◦DRY INGREDIENTS
◦Whole Wheat Pastry Flour 2 cups
◦Granulated Sugar (See Notes) 1 and 1/3 cup
◦Cocoa Powder 2/3 cup
◦Baking Soda, 1 and 1/2 teaspoon
◦WET INGREDIENTS
◦Canola Oil 1/4 cup
◦Hot Water 1 and 1/2 cups
◦Vanilla Extract 1 teaspoon
◦Bananas, mashed or pureed 1 cup
Yield: 1 Bundt cake. (I think it will make two 8-inch layers or one 9×13 inch cake as well)
1. Preheat the oven at 350F/180C. Spray a bundt pan with non stick cooking spray.
2. In a large bowl mix together the dry ingredients and keep it aside.
3. I pureed 2 small size bananas with little water to measure 1 cup of puree.
4. To the flour mixture add the canola oil, hot water and vanilla extract; mix well.
5. Now add the pureed bananas and blend thoroughly.
6. The cake batter is quite “water-y”. Pour the batter in the prepared pan and bake for approximately from 45-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
