Eggless Choco-Coffee Banana Cake..Microwave Method


DSC_1909-001
Hi!
When it comes to cakes, I’m more of an eggless person. I prefer eggless cake anytime. The smell of egg is something I do not like in a cake. I also love the classic combination of chocolate and banana too. This time I’ve added another simple ingredient to this classic combination and that as the title suggests is coffee.
The coffee adds to the dark color of the cake as well as also adds a light flavor and bitterness too. This cake can be made in convection as well as microwave mode. I prefer the microwave way as it’s very quick and this cake as it is does not require any browning which all the regular cakes need, hence, microwave method comes out handy.
This cake is perfect for working women or anyone who wants to bake a good cake in a very short time. It’s a perfect snack to be given to kids. if you want to bake this cake in an oven or in a convection mode. Bake at 180C for 30-35mins.

APF is maida, right? Can I use whole wheat flour, will the taste and moistness be the same?

Unknown said...

Hi could you please tell the exact quantity of curd to be added. The recipe says 1-1/3 cups. Thanks.
