Banana, Coconut, Chocolate Chip Snack Cake | バナナ・ココナッツ・チョコチップケーキ

I’m back in the baking mode after New Years.

The bananas in my fruit basket needed some help so tried a new recipe from food 52. The combination of bananas, coconut and chocolate chips was quite interesting.

お正月モードから少しずつ遠ざかり、、ベーキングMODEに少しずつエンジンがかかってきました。バナナが悲鳴を上げていましたので、、新しいバナナケーキに挑戦してみました。バナナのしっとり感がよく出るケーキです。オリジナルレシピはfood52からのものです。

Banana, Coconut, Chocolate Chip Snack Cake –

2 ripe bananas
2 large eggs (lightly beaten)
50g dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
140g/10 tablespoons coconut oil
125g all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon fine sea salt (plus more for sprinkling)
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 handfuls shredded coconut (sweetened or unsweetened)

Preheat the oven to 180C/350 F. and line a 9 (22cm) x 13-inch (27cm) baking pan with parchment paper.
Mash bananas in a bowl and push them to one side to make room for the “liquid” ingredients. Add the eggs, dark brown sugar, vanilla, and coconut oil.
In a separate bowl, mix the flour and salt. Add the flour mixture to the wet banana mixture. Stir with a whisk just until combined.
Add the chocolate chips and coconut. Stir one last time to evenly distribute the add-ins.
Pour batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle (from a height) with fine or flaky sea salt to lightly dust the surface of the cake.
Bake for 45 to 55 minutes (mine was done after 45 minutes), or until a toothpick comes out mostly clean. Allow to cool on a wire rack before slicing.
