20 February, 2019 07:45.
Ingredients
| 1 | ripe banana, mashed | |
| 1 | egg (can be substituted with 50ml of milk or water; I once ran out of egg and substituted with water and it worked fine) | |
| 1 teaspoon | 5 ml | oil |
| 2 teaspoons | 10 ml | water |
| 2 teaspoons | 10 ml | baking powder |
| 1/4 cup | 60 ml | icing sugar |
| 100 g | all-purpose flour (2/3 cup to close to 1 cup) | |
| 2 tablespoons | 30 ml | semi-sweet chocolate chips or raisins, optional |
Instructions
- Place all the ingredients in a small mixing bowl.
- Mix the ingredients with a fork until well blended.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil. Steam the cake on a rack for 15 to 18 minutes until a tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Remove from the steamer and let the cake cool for a few minutes. Use a knife to loosen the sides of the cake and pop the cake out of the bowl. Here you are, a warm and fragrant cake ready in less than 25 minutes. You may add some chocolate chips if you prefer.
