Instructions
- Mash the bananas in a bowl until smooth and creamy.
- Crack in the egg and whisk until well combined.
- Add oat flour (or almond flour), baking powder, and cinnamon. Mix gently.
- Pour the batter into a greased small cake tin or baking dish.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 20–25 minutes, or until golden and firm to touch.
The Result?
You’ll get a soft, fluffy, and naturally sweet cake with no need for sugar or flour. The bananas provide sweetness, while the egg gives structure and fluffiness. It’s the kind of recipe that makes you wonder why you ever bought cakes from a store.
