Description

This light and fluffy banana chiffon cake is a delightful dessert, and it is equally delicious when paired with fruits as it is enjoyed on its own.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 80 grams (2.8 oz) cake flour
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 14 grams (0.5oz) sugar
  • 35 grams (1.2oz) vegetable/canola oil
  • 45 grams (1.5oz) milk
  • pinch of salt
  • 1/4 tsp (0.6 g) cinnamon
  • 2 ripe bananas, about 210 grams (7.5oz)
  • 4 egg whites
  • 40 grams (1.5oz) castor sugar
  • 1/2 tsp (1.5 g) cream of tartar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 330 degrees F or 165 degrees C.
  2. Process the bananas in a blender or food processor and make it into a paste.
  3. Mix the egg yolks with the sugar, oil and milk and stir until smooth. Add in the salt, cinnamon, and cake flour.
  4. Use an electric mixer and beat the egg whites, adding in the cream of tartar and the sugar. Beat until stiff peaks.
  5. Fold the egg whites into the yolk batter, using a spatula and scraping around the side of the bowl and pushing the batter to the middle. Do this until it’s fully incorporated but try not to over mix.
  6. Pour the batter into your cake pan and bake for 50 – 55 minutes until a tester comes out clean.
  7. When you remove it from the oven, turn the cake mold upside down immediately and let it cool completely before you attempt to take it out.
