Recipe Story

This is the easiest cake in the world to create and everybody loves it. Great for children of all ages. One of the best ways to use up those old bananas!

Ingredients

1-3/4 cups unbleached flour or whole wheat pastry flour

1 cup cane sugar or turbinado sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon fine salt

3/4 cup soy milk

2 bananas, overripe, mashed

1/2 cup safflower oil or any light vegetable oil

1 teaspoon vanilla

3/4 cup vegan chocolate chips

How to make Vegan Banana Chocolate Chip Cake

reheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9-inch square or round pan with Pam or other baking spray.

Put dry ingredients into a bowl. Blend with a fork. Add oil, soy milk and vanilla. Stir until the mixture comes together, but don't overmix. Break bananas into chunks and drop into the batter, mash with a fork and mix briefly. Fold in chocolate chips.

Pour into prepared pan and bake on center rack for 35-40 minutes, just until cake tester comes out clean.

Remove from oven, place on wire rack to cool. To serve sprinkle with powdered sugar and enjoy! Also great with crushed pineapple or berries.

Here's a tip. If you like a smoother banana texture, break bananas into a seperate bowl, mash and mix well, until smooth, then fold into the batter.

Overmixing your batter will create a more dense cake with a tougher crumb. Cakes should be gently mixed until dry ingredients are incorporated, unless specified otherwise.

These are so good. My husband didn't want to stop eating these, I made them as cupcakes for my boys 1st B-day. We'll see how everyone else likes them at the party.

This cake is awesome. I tweaked it a little to make it gluten free for my daughter. I used buckwheat flour instead of regular flour and only put 1/2 the sugar. It was fantastic!!!
