Ingredients for Pan-Fried Banana Cake

  • 2 ripe bananas (mashed)

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour

  • ½ cup honey or jaggery powder

  • ¼ cup milk

  • 2 tbsp oil or butter

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • ½ tsp baking soda

  • 1 tsp vanilla essence

  • A pinch of salt

  • 1 tsp cinnamon powder

  • Handful of chopped almonds, walnuts, or cashews

Step-by-Step Recipe

1. Prepare the Batter

  • Mash the bananas in a bowl. Add milk, oil/butter, honey/jaggery, and vanilla essence. Mix well.

  • Stir in salt and cinnamon powder.

2. Dry Ingredients

  • In another bowl, sift together wheat flour, baking powder, and baking soda.

  • Gradually fold the dry mix into the banana mixture. If the batter is too thick, add a splash of milk.

  • Fold in chopped nuts for extra crunch.

3. Cook in a Pan

  • Heat a non-stick pan on low flame and lightly grease it with oil.

  • Pour the batter into the pan, spread evenly, and cover with a lid.

  • Cook on low heat for 25–30 minutes (no flipping needed!).

4. Check & Serve

  • Insert a toothpick—if it comes out clean, the cake is ready.

  • Let it cool, slice, and enjoy!
