A very solid but flavourful cake from a late work colleague Graham B. Ingredients:
3 eggs |
1 cup sugar |
3/4 cup cream |
1 1/2 cups wholemeal self-rising flour |
5 bananas, very ripe |
1 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped |
1 cup dried coconut (mix with the milk) |
1/4 cup milk |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 160degC (325degF).
2. Beat eggs and sugar together in electric mixer until mixture is thick and pale - use a fairly low speed.
3. Pour cream into the bowl and beat for a few seconds longer.
4. Sift flour, add to bowl and stir with wooden spoon.
5. Peel bananas and smash with the flat side of a chopper, but do not mash, add to batter with nuts and the coconut mixed with the milk.
6. Stir only until all ingredients are combined.
7. Grease 2 x 20cm (8”) pans and dust with breadcrumbs, shaking out excess and cook for 1 hr or until top brown, usually 1 to 1 1/4 hours.
8. Serve warm or cold.
