🥣 Ingredients
For the cake:
- 2 ripe bananas
- 150 g rolled oats (about 1¾ cups)
- 2 large eggs
- 120 ml milk (½ cup)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
- 1 pinch of salt
For the topping:
- ¼ cup chopped walnuts
- 2 tablespoons raisins
- 1 tablespoon rolled oats
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the blender
Place the rolled oats into a clean blender jar.
Peel the two ripe bananas and add them on top of the oats.
The riper your bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cake will be!
Step 2: Add the wet ingredients
Crack two eggs into the blender.
Pour in the milk, then add the honey, cinnamon, baking powder, and a small pinch of salt.
Step 3: Blend until smooth
Secure the blender lid and blend until you get a thick, creamy batter.
The oats should be finely blended, and the bananas should be fully incorporated.
Tip: Let the batter rest for 5 minutes so the oats can absorb some moisture.
Step 4: Pour into the baking pan
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a small loaf pan (approximately 8 × 4 inches) with parchment paper.
Pour the banana oat batter into the prepared pan and gently spread it evenly.
Step 5: Add the delicious toppings
Sprinkle chopped walnuts, raisins, and a little rolled oats over the batter.
Gently press the toppings into the surface so they stay in place while baking.
Step 6: Bake until golden
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven.
Bake for approximately 35–45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
If the top browns too quickly, loosely cover it with aluminum foil.
Step 7: Cool, slice, and enjoy!
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10–15 minutes.
Transfer it to a wire rack and allow it to cool further before slicing.
Cut into thick slices and enjoy the soft, moist banana-oat texture with crunchy walnuts and sweet raisins!
💡 Tips for the Perfect Banana Oat Cake
🍌 Use very ripe bananas: Brown-spotted bananas provide more natural sweetness.
🥣 Don’t add too much milk: The batter should be thick, not watery.
🌰 Customize your toppings: Try pecans, blueberries, dark chocolate chips, or sliced almonds.
🍯 Adjust the sweetness: For a sweeter cake, add another tablespoon of honey or maple syrup.
🔥 Check before removing from the oven: Baking times vary depending on the loaf pan and oven.
❄️ How to Store Your Banana Oat Cake
- Refrigerator: Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
- Freezer: Freeze individual slices for up to 2 months.
- Reheating: Warm a slice briefly in the microwave or toaster oven before serving.
