Dessert.
there is nothing much to say about it. Almost everyone loves it and it's just plain happiness.
Got back from work early and have some spare time. Looking at my ripe bananas, I decided to make a banana coffee cake streusel.
The only thing about baking is the importance of the amount of your ingredients, therefore I looked up the recipe online.
- 2/3 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 large egg
- 1 1/3 cups mashed very ripe bananas (about 3 large)
- 3 tablespoons buttermilk
Pre heat the oven to 350F. Start with making the streusel. Mix the brown sugar, walnuts and cinnamon in a small bowl. Then beat sugar, butter and egg in a medium bowl. Sift the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt into the bowl of butter mixture. Then fold in the buttermilk and bananas. I do not like the bananas too mashed, so i didn't mix them much.
Butter and flour a 8x8x2 pan. Then pour in half of the batter, cover the first layer with streusel and add the remaining batter. Cover the cake with the rest of the streusel and it is ready to go into the oven.
It takes about 45 minutes. Check the cake by sticking in a toothpick or fork. If it comes out clean, then it is ready!
12 servings: make sure you have friends and family to share this delicious dessert with!
You can also add some chocolate chips in the streusel. Reduce the sugar if you don't like it too sweet, but try not to alternate the proportion of the other ingredients.
