Caramel Banana Cake With Rum Butterscotch Recipes

CARAMEL BANANA CAKE WITH RUM BUTTERSCOTCH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan) mark 4. Grease a 900g (2lb) loaf tin. For the caramel, melt butter and sugar in a heavy-based medium pan, stirring to dissolve sugar. Bring up to a bubble then pour into prepared tin.

• For the cake, in a large bowl using a handheld electric whisk, beat butter, sugar and a large pinch of salt until pale and fluffy - about 5min. Sift together flour and bicarb. Beat eggs and vanilla into butter mixture. Beat in half the flour mixture, alternating with half the soured cream, then repeat, until both are fully incorporated.
• Spoon batter on top of bananas; smooth to level. Bake for 55min, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Cool in tin for 5min (no more) before inverting on to a serving plate to cool.
• Meanwhile make the rum butterscotch. Heat butter, sugar and soured cream in a pan, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Bubble for 2min, then remove from heat and stir in rum. Serve cake just warm or at room temperature with the sauce poured over/on the side.

Pour into the prepared cake tin and bake for 25-30 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean. Leave to cool completely on a wire rack.
• Caramel:.
• Place the heavy cream and butter in a small pot over a low heat so that the butter melts and the cream starts to steam.
• Meanwhile heat the sugar in a light-coloured pan over a medium heat. Once the sugar starts to melt start to tilt and swirl the pan so that the sugar mixes with the melted caramel and evenly melts. Once the sugar has all melted and has turned from light yellow to amber, turn the heat down to low and pour in the warm cream and butter mixture - this will bubble up so be careful. Stir together until smooth then take off the heat and stir in the salt. Let cool for 5 minutes then stir in the rum. Leave to cool completely.
• Decorate:.
• Place the heavy cream in a medium bowl and beat with a whisk until soft peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the cooled cake then pour over the cooled caramel. Top with the pecans and sliced banana. Serve immediately or keep covered in the fridge for up to 3 days.
