Eggless Banana Cake :Â Kadali Apupaka
Banana is one of the most nutritious fruits and the best part is it liked by most kids. I always like to use banana in different ways for my daughter and those recipes have been loved by all of you. You might remember the banana nut bread and atta banana walnut bread. Recently I came across another recipe of eggless banana cake by a dear friend which is eggless and uses banana powder. It is such a great recipe that I just had to share it with you all.

Step 2: Wet Ingredients – Take butter in a bowl, add condensed milk and beat it well. Then add Elaichi/ elakki powder (quantity as per your taste buds) and half tsp Vanilla essence. Enhance the sweetness by adding about 2 table spoon brown sugar (may use white sugar instead). Add half cup milk and stir well.
Step 3: Take ripe bananas and mash these nicely by hand or mixer. Mix this in the wet ingredients and stir well.
