Ingredients

    1 cup Chelsea White Sugar
    100g butter, melted
    3 bananas, mashed with a fork
    3 eggs
    1 tsp baking soda
    ½ cup low fat milk
    150ml plain or fruit yoghurt (apricot works well)
    2 cups flour
    3 tsp baking powder

    Lemon Icing
    25g butter or margarine
    2 cups Chelsea Icing Sugar
    1-2 Tbsp lemon juice

Method

    Preheat oven to 160°C. Spray a 20-22 cm round spring-form baking tin with non stick baking spray. Line the base with baking paper.

    Beat the Chelsea White Sugar, melted butter and eggs until thick and creamy. Add the mashed bananas and beat well.

    Heat the milk in a small microwave proof bowl or jug in the microwave until nearly boiling (approximately 1 minute). Stir the baking soda into the milk then stir this into the banana mixture.

    Add the yoghurt, flour and baking powder. Mix well and pour into the prepared cake tin. Bake for 45-50 minutes until the cake is cooked in the middle and just pulling away from the edges of the tin. Cool in tin for 5 minutes then release the spring sides and cool completely on a wire rack. When completely cold, ice with either lemon icing or cream cheese icing.

    Lemon Icing
    Melt the butter (microwave for about 30 seconds). Beat in the Chelsea Icing Sugar and lemon juice to make a fluffy icing. Add a little hot water if required for a spreadable consistency. Spread over the cooled cake.

I have always been unsuccessful with baking banana cake but this recipe is amazing. The mixture is very wet but light, so wouldn't be too heavy handed with the liquids. So moist and easy, one of my best cakes ever! Be happy to pay for it in a cafe, Very happy baker

Love making this Banana cake for my family its thick and moist the right consistency.

Great texture, great taste. Best Banana Bread!!!

I highly recommend this recipe. It made a delicious cake which we enjoyed eating. Though halfway through we got confused between baking soda and baking powder and put baking soda in instead of baking powder and vice versa.
