Hi everyone, as promise here is my banana zebra cake recipe. I am actually has been chased by the left out banana that I bought some day back. Totally forgotten about it. Luckily, found it yesterday and still be able to make something out of it. I made one yesterday with a 9" tray. It was really good but the cake wasn't tall enough for my photoshot. haha..... So, made the rest of the banana today with a 8" tray. Gosh, it turns out perfect. Hope you guys will love it too.

Ingredients : (size 8" tray)
Portion A
7 egg yolk
1 egg
70ml  corn oil/melted butter
120gm  mashed banana
110gm  all purpose flour
1/4 tspn  salt

Portion B
7 egg white
100gm  fine sugar
1/4 tspn  cream of tartar

Portion C
1 tspn  chacoal powder
1-1/2 tspn  hot water
(mix well and set aside)

Method :
(1)  Portion A : beat eggs till pail & fluffy then add in mashed banana, salt & oil and beat till well combined.
(2)  now, fold in flour and beat till well cooperated and set aside.
(3)  Portion B :  whisk egg white till foamy then add in cream of tartar and continue whisking for about 1 minute.
(4)  next, add in sugar 1/3 at a time about 2 minutes each batch till egg white became stiff and meringue like.
(5)  now, transfer egg white to Portion A in three batches and stir till well combined. Do not beat the mixture, as this will create more air in batter.
(6)  then divide batter into 2 portions in separated bowl.
(7)  add Portion C to one portion of batter and mix till well cooperated.
(8)  finally,  alternately pour in both batter in equal portions to a 8" tray lined with baking paper, with the side coated with butter. (I used 2 medium size soup paddle)
(9)  and then bake at preheated oven 160'C under water bath method, for about 70 minutes or till tester came out clean.

Tips :  make sure you tap your baking tray on working table after each addition of batter, this will helps batter to spread and gives you better outcome.
Tips :  water bath method meaning put the batter tray to a bigger tray filled with hot water on it. This is also called as steam bake method. After 70 minutes of baking time, mine is about to dry out.

Love how it turns out ! The cake looks really tall and gorgeous.

And really fluffy & soft <3 <3 and smells really good too. No artificial essence or flavouring. wholely fresh banana...... Loving it so much.
