Healthy Blueberry And Banana Cake

This is based on another recipe which i modified for our taste. It's very moist with a great banana flavour (as long as you use really overripe ones). Because there is not a lot of sugar, most of the sweetness comes from the bananas; it is not intended to be an overly sweet cake so please don't give this recipe a poor review simply because you are expecting it to be sweeter. Having said that, it still makes a really nice afternoon tea while being quite low in saturated fat for a cake and full of fruit. You can try adding more sugar if you like but of course then it won't be as healthy. :)

Steps

Preheat your oven to 180c line the bottom of a 20cm deep round cake pan with baking paper , then grease it.

Mash bananas with a fork.

Sift baking powder and flour into a bowl and then stir in the sugar.

Mix the oil , milk , bananas and eggs in another bowl , then mix with the flour-sugar mixture.

Pour half of the batter into the cake pan , spinkle half the blueberries over the top , then top with the rest of the batter.

Decorate the cake with the remaining blueberries and then bake in the oven for 50-55 minutes.

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes , then gently turn out onto a rack to finish cooling.

Serve with sweetened cream or ice cream for a yummy afternoon tea !.
