Ingredients:
225gr of plain flour
120gr caster sugar
80ml olive oil
4 small ripe bananas or 3 large ones
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
2 tsp of cinnamon or any spice you like
3 tbsp cocoa powder
oat milk if needed
Method:
Preheat the oven at 180 C.
Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and cinnamon together.
Mash the bananas with a fork or a potato masher and add the olive oil to them.
Combine quickly the dry and wet ingredients together, be careful to not over mix the batter otherwise the cake will be chewy, if the batter is too dry add a splash of milk.
Transfer half of the batter into a greased 20cm square cake tin or 2lb loaf pan.
To the rest of the mixture add the cocoa powder and if the consistency is too dry add some oat milk or water to loosen it up.
Now pour the cocoa batter into the tin and gently use a fork to stir through the two different mixture, creating swirls to achieve the marble effect.
You can add some pecan nuts or walnuts on top prior baking .
Bake for 30 mins if used the square cake tin or 40/50mins if used a loaf pan.
Always check with a skewer if the cake is thoroughly cooked inside.
