Banana Cake With Walnuts Vietnamese Chuoi Nuong Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F In a large mixing bowl cream butter, vanilla and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time.
• Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt together. Mix mashed bananas and milk together.
• Blend dry ingredients into batter alternating with banana mixture. Stir in chopped nuts.
• Pour batter into 2 greased and floured 8-inch round or square baking pans.
• Bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until cake tester inserted in center comes out clean.
• Cool 10 minutes, then turn out on racks until thoroughly cool. When ready to serve frost with Cream Cheese Frosting.
• Cream Cheese Frosting: In mixing bowl, stir cheese until smooth. Gradually beat in sugar a little at a time. Add vanilla; beat until smooth. Spread mixture between layers and around sides.

Steps:

• Turn oven on to 180C, 160C for fan oven or gas mark 4. Have your ingrediants ready.
• Put everything except the walnuts in a bowl and mix together, I personally use my hands and a spoon or fork to get the right consistancy and make sure there's no lumps.
• Add the Walnuts in when the mixture is smooth and make sure it's mixed together.
• Put mix into a cake tin, I personally used a deep cake tin but a Sponge or Loaf tin should do fine. Butter the tin to make sure the cake comes out smoothly. Place some walnuts on top and make sure it's even. Place in oven for 35-45minutes, keep checking on it.
• When you take your cake out the oven make sure it has risen nicely and isn't gooey in the inside. Let it cool for a bit then keep it on a cooling rack to harden a little so you don't make a mess while cutting. The walnuts should be nice and slightly crispy when you eat it.
• You could do two of these and put icing on the top and in the centre, I've yet to try it but very tempting as the final product is so light, fluffy and doesn't taste overly sweet. It also satisfies very well after dinner. (I've personally had a Gastric Bypass and found this lovely to have!)
