My 2-Minute Microwave Banana Cake Bowl recipe gives you a soft, sweet, and absolutely legit banana cake made in just minutes!
- 1 medium (4oz/115g) overripe banana
- ⅓ cup (2 oz/57 g) dark brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons whole milk (at room temperature)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg (at room temperature)
- 6 tablespoons (1 ¾oz/ 50g) all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- pinch of salt
- whipped cream, caramel sauce and nuts (for garnish)
-
In a medium, microwavable bowl, mash the banana with a fork until almost smooth.
-
Whisk in the brown sugar, milk, oil, vanilla extract, and egg until well blended.
-
In a separate small bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder and salt.
-
Stir the dry ingredients into the wet and mix until the batter is smooth.
-
Microwave on high for 90 seconds. Check for doneness and continue to cook in 20-second increments, until cooked through. (It will most likely be done in about 2 minutes.) This timing is based on a 1200WATT microwave so check your wattage.
-
Decorate with cream, caramel sauce and chopped toasted nuts. Enjoy straight away!
