I was told that this cake is a brownie, but it is not. It is a cake. And like most cakes without dairy and sugar, it is rather… uninteresting! Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with this recipe. It is just that I haven’t managed to find an interesting cake, if I omit these two ingredients at the same time… I will keep on looking though because I have a restriction on sugar and as I adore deserts, I carry on my efforts for “healthy” solutions.
Ingredients: 1 cup of cocoa, 3 tbsp of smooth peanut butter, 3 ripe bananas, 1 tsp of baking powder. Easy? Easy!
We put everything in a mixer and mix well. We apply grease proof paper in a small try and spread the mixture. Bake in 180C for 40’. Check with a knife before taking out of the oven..
I have to say: This is a cocoa like cake rather stiff – it is not moisty. That is why I told you that this is not a brownie.
Now what would I do differently? I think I would add 2 tbsp of honey and 1 cup of orange juice. Also, nuts would be interesting! But all these are a different recipe! I will do some tests and revert!
Enjoy!
