Step 1: Prepare the Batter
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a round or square cake pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. The bananas act as a natural sweetener, so make sure they’re fully ripe for the best flavor.
- Add the eggs to the mashed bananas and beat until well combined. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, mix the almond flour, baking powder, and cinnamon. Gradually fold this dry mixture into the wet ingredients until you have a smooth, lump-free batter.
- If desired, gently fold in chopped nuts or dark chocolate chips for extra flavor and texture.
Step 2: Bake the Cake
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The cake should be golden brown on top and firm to the touch.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 3: Serve and Enjoy
Cut your cake into slices and serve as is, or top with fresh fruit, a dollop of Greek yogurt, or a sprinkle of cinnamon. This cake pairs perfectly with a cup of coffee or tea for a satisfying, guilt-free treat.
Tips for Success
- Use Ripe Bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cake will be.
- Don’t Overmix: Gently fold in the dry ingredients to keep the batter light and airy.
- Customize Your Toppings: Feel free to top the cake with nuts, seeds, or fresh berries for added texture and flavor.
