Banana Chocolate Walnut Cake Recipes

BANANA, WALNUT & CHOCOLATE CHIP LOAF

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Line a 900g/2lb loaf tin with baking parchment. In a large bowl, mash together the bananas and the sugar with the back of a fork. Add the eggs and mix well with an electric hand whisk until fully incorporated, then add the butter and mix for a couple mins more to blend everything together. Sieve in the flour and baking powder and fold together with a spatula, then add the walnuts and chocolate chips. Give everything one final mix before tipping into the lined loaf tin.
• Bake for 1 hr 5 mins or until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Leave to cool slightly in the tin, then turn out and serve cut into thick slices, either warm or at room temperature. Any uneaten cake will keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

• With mixer at low speed, add flour mixture and mix until just incorporated.
• Toss together chocolate, nuts, cinnamon, melted butter, and remaining 1/4 cup sugar in a small bowl. Spread half of banana batter in cake pan and sprinkle with half of chocolate mixture. Spread remaining batter evenly over filling and sprinkle remaining chocolate mixture on top.

BANANA WALNUT CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper (or silpat), or spray with nonstick spray.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, salt and baking soda.
• In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the butter and sugars; mix on medium speed until pale and fluffy. Reduce the speed to low and add the egg and vanilla; mix until combined. Mix in the banana. Add the flour mixture; mix just until combined. Stir in the oats, chocolate chips and walnuts.
• Drop the dough by heaping tablespoonful onto the prepared baking sheets (or use a cookie scoop), spacing about 2 inches apart. Bake the cookies until golden brown and just set, 12 to 13 minutes. Let them cool on the cookie sheets for 5 minutes. Then transfer the cookies to wire racks; let cool completely.

ONE-BOWL BANANA CHOCOLATE CHIP WALNUT CAKE

Steps:

• Mash bananas; push to side, leaving a space along bowl's side.
• Beat eggs along empty side of bowl, then combine with bananas.
• Stir in sugar, applesauce, vanilla and salt.
• Shake lightly and evenly across surface of batter, the flour and soda; mix just enough to incorporate.
• Stir in chocolate chips and walnuts. Go easy on chocolate chips because they can overwhelm the cake.
• Pour into greased and floured 7"x11" pyrex glass baking dish (or muffin tins, bundt rounds, etc).
• Bake 40 minutes at 350-degrees (less for muffins, etc.).
• Frosting is unnecessary but cream cheese (8 oz) & butter (4 Tb) with any flavoring (any syrup, orange concentrate) is yummy.

BANANA CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE CHIPS AND WALNUTS

Steps:

• Melt 1 tablespoon of butter and paint the inside of a 9 x 3 round cake pan, then put the pan in the freezer for 30 minutes. (The frozen butter prevents the batter from sticking to the pan.) On a cookie sheet bake the walnuts in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes, turning every 5 minutes or so; let cool, roughly chop, and set aside.
• In a bowl mash the bananas with a fork, add the baking soda and vanilla. Stir well and set aside. In a mixer use the whisk to cream together the softened butter and both sugars. Add the eggs, mashed bananas, half and half and whisk until blended. Mix in the flour half a cup at a time, being careful not to over-beat. Remove the bowl from the mixer. Use a rubber spatula to blend in the walnuts and chocolate chips. Pour the batter into the buttered cake pan; it will only fill the pan half-way.
• Bake the cake in a 350 oven for 60-70 minutes, turning the pan every 20 minutes so the cake cooks evenly. Test to see if the cake is done by inserting a wooden skewer. If the top is browning too quickly, lightly lay a sheet of aluminum foil over the top. When the skewer comes out clean, take the cake out of the oven and place it on a wire rack for 30 minutes. Remove the cake from the pan, putting it back on the wire rack to finish cooling.
• Just before serving dust the top with powdered sugar and shaved chocolate. Serve warm or at room temperature with vanilla ice cream or freshly whipped cream.
