Eggless Banana Cake

 
I was always  in a dilemma with usage of over ripe bananas . They were unappetizing but edible but I didn't know how to use it till i started seeing a lot of banana based bakes online . I found this recipe for banana egg less cake on a website and the best part was it was of whole wheat flour . After baking and tasting it I can say it doesn't compromise much on taste and will be loved by all . Watch this banana bread , with the aroma of bananas ,disappear in a jiffy.

6. Now add the flour,baking powder,baking soda mix to the above mixture and mix well .It should be a normal flowy consistency , neither too thick nor too runny. 
7. Add chopped walnuts and raisins and give a quick stir.
8. Grease a loaf tin with some oil evenly and add the batter to it. 
9. Bake at same temperature for 40-45 minutes insert a skewer in the middle to see if it comes out clean , then your cake is done.
10. Serve hot at teatime.I dribbled a little chocolate sauce as I love the flavour of chocolate.

Notes:

• It is healthy because of whole wheat flour, if you want it tastier you can use equal portions of all purpose and whole wheat flour.
• Butter can be used in place of oil , again it will compromise on the health quotient of the dish.
• You can adjust the consistency of the batter with milk.
