Great recipe! I made it as cupcakes for my son’s first birthday and it made about 2.5 dozen cupcakes, 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes worked pretty well. I love that it’s not too sweet, doesn’t have eggs or milk, and has whole wheat and fruit in it-perfect for a baby and yummy & healthy for mommy too!

Thank you very much for trying the recipe and for the feedback. I too am going to follow your tips and try it as cupcakes the next time.

I’ve been searching for a good recipe for an eggless cake for a couple’s 25th anniversary. Most of them were either dry or heavy. This one is the best so far. I made half the quantity in an 8in cake pan with half the quantity. I used melted butter. The cake turned out moist, fluffy and delicious. Dark and rich looking on the inside. Taste is exceptional. A faint hint of banana which goes pretty well with the chocolate flavor. I used one banana that wasn’t very ripe (about half cup and with no liquid added to it)I topped it with melted chocolate. Yum! Thanks Madhu.

You’re welcome Dee. I too like this cake very much for the reason that the flavor of banana is not too pronounced.

Hi Madhuram,

I tried your eggless Dates cake as my first baking exp and it came out very well. Thanks to that effort , I want to try this one. I don’t have a Bundt pan so would just use 1/2 your recipe on my regular square 8×8.

I have couple questions reg this recipe :-

1. Can i omit the cocoa and make a regular banana cake ? (nothing against cocoa…just don’t have any with me at the moment)

2. Can i substitute cocoa with say Ovaltine (which I happen to have ?

3.After the cake (any cake not this alone) comes out of the oven, should it rest in the pan i baked before i take it out ?

Thanks ,
Krithiga

Krithiga you can try halving the recipe or if you have a 13×9 inch pan, you can go with the same measurement. If you don’t have cocoa, substitute the same amount of APF. You can try ovaltine too. I have tried it in frosting instead of cocoa but not while baking. Yes any cake has to be rested in the pan (the pan preferably placed on a cooling/wire rack) for 10 minutes.

I just tried this cake using wheat flour, 1/2 cup butter, 3/4 cup banana, 1 1/2 cups brown sugar instead of regular sugar, and 1/2 cup bittersweet chocolate chips. Baked in a 9X13 pan for 30 minutes. It came out great! I needed to bake a cake for a friend’s birthday, and I didn’t have eggs! Didn’t taste banana-y! Definitely impressed!

Thanks Vina.

Hey but where do i find this whole wheat pastry flour????
This kind of flour are sold by the name of whole wheat flour itself or just by the name whole wheat flour or 100% whole wheat flour can somebody please guide me????And i stay in Los Angeles in which store i will be able to find this flour..I tried checking in Trader Joes but couldnt find it

Sapna, whole wheat pastry flour is different from whole wheat flour. The pastry flour is made from soft wheat so has a finer texture but it is as nutritious as the regular whole wheat flour. I’m sure that you will be able to find it in Whole Foods and organic/health food stores.
