Banana Chocolate Chip Cake

Here it is the recipe of Banana Cake that I have ever baked (beside the other recipe that I posted before). Actually I love this one than another. Maybe because I am not into chocolate and prefer this one that is didn't use too much chocolate as a part of the cake and only use chocolate chip, LOL. I baked this cake to bring at office and you know what my colleagues comment about this cake? All said that this cake was so yummy and one of them ever said that this banana cake is bakery-like cake than a homemade one. 

I got this recipe from Mbak Ienas Tsuroiya, my old friend in Multiply who ever share the recipe in her blog. If you love banana, this cake is a must. Just try to bake it then you will never forget this amazing cake. You can decrease the amount of sugar, just adapt to your daily taste and suitable for you. Actually i try to decrease the amount of sugar if I think the banana is over-ripen so much and the original taste of banana is over-sweet.

BANANA CHOCOLATE CHIP CAKE

Original Recipe of Julie Hasson in 30 Best Chocolate Recipes

Ingredients:

• 2 1/2 cup all purpose flour
• 2 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 cup vegetable oil (I used canola oil and sometimes coconut oil)
• 1 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 4 eggs, medium sized
• 2 cup ripe banana,  mashed
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
• 3/4 cup toasted walnut/almond

Directions:

• In a bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt.
• In other bowl, mix vegetable oil and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add mashed banana and vanilla, mix well. 
• Add flour mixture, beating just until smooth. Stir in chocolate chips and walnut/almonds (if using).
• Preheat oven to 180 degree Celcius.
• Use any loaf pan that you want. I used 24x10x7 cm loaf pan, lined with parchment, greased. Spread the batter in that pan. Bake in oven for 60 to 65 minutes or until a tester inserted into center of cakes comes out clean.
• Let cakes cool in racks for 15 minutes. Remove from the pan and let cool completely.
• Ready to be served.

Chocolate Banana Cake

This is for banana lover around the world. Yipieee.... I usually get many bananas from my grandmother when she come to my home. And totally, the amount of bananas was so absurd, never been success to eat all of them without throw some of them in the rubbish bin because the banana was spoiled.

It happened again several days ago. My home became a kingdom of banana, LOL. Finally, there were 3 ripe bananas remain in my fruit basket. I tried to not throw them out into the rubbish bin. Then i got idea why not use them to make banana cake. My friend ever told me that those blackish-brown banana are the best ingredient to make super yummy banana cake.

Then I made this cake (the original recipe said that it was not cake, it is bread. Forgive me that i prefer to say that this is a cake). 

I got the original recipe from Mbak Hesti, adapted from Savory Sweet Life The cake is so rich and moist, i can't imagine i used only 1 egg and the texture of the cake very moist. I made some adjustment to the ingredient, i didn't use sour cream because I didn't have it at home so I substituted it with fresh milk. Maybe the taste would be better if i use sour cream or maybe buttermilk. If you ate this cake when it was still warm you will get the melting sensation of the chocolate chip inside the cake.

Just enjoy it...

• 1 egg
• 3 large ripened bananas mashed
• 1/2 tsp vanilla
• 150 g flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 2 tbs cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup of sour cream (can be substituted with yogurt, buttermilk or fresh milk)
• 1 cup of chocolate chips

Directions:

• Preheat oven to 175 degrees Celcius.
• Lightly grease a 9x5 loaf pan or any size of baking pan that you have at home with butter and sprinkle a little amount of flour.

Recipe in Bahasa Indonesia

Bolu Gulung Pisang (Banana Roll Cake)

Ini pertama kalinya saya membuat bolu gulung, kebanyakan resep bolu gulung memakai telur dalam jumlah yang banyak. Demi mempertimbangkan unsur kesehatan dan penghematan, saya mencoba mencari resep bolu gulung yang minimalis. Alhamdulillah di milis NCC ada yang mau berbagi resepnya. Jadilah resep aslinya saya modifikasi sedikit dengan menambahkan unsur pisang didalamnya. Alhamdulillah membaking kali ini terbilang cukup sukses -melihat track record perbakingan saya yang tidak pernah lepas dari kata gagal total.

Berhubung pisang yang saya potong terlalu tipis dan kondisi pisang juga sudah matang sekali, jadi di bagian bawah ketika memanggang hampir-hampir gosong. Jadi ada baiknya kalau teman-teman mau mencoba, cari pisang yang tak terlampau matang. Pada awalnya pun ketika menggulung kulitnya tidak retak, tapi saking saya masih pemula karena saya pikir kurang padat saya buka lagi gulungannya dan menggulung ulang, eh ternyata ada yang retak dikit.

Sayang, warnanya kurang hijau, ketika difoto malah jadi terlihat kuning Tapi tak apalah, yang penting rasanya tak mengecewakan...

[Edisi # 10 MVB] Es Pisang Ijo - Makanan Sehat Berbahan Pisang -

Ini pertama kalinya aku ikutan berpartisipasi di MVB, di tengah kesibukan mengurus ini-itu menjelang The Day, pengen aja ngublek-ngublek dapur. Kebetulan Papa lagi baik banget, bisa dititipi beliin pisang sekalian beliau pulang kantor. Dan saking baiknya, Papa beli buanyyaaakk banget. Sampe aku stress ngeliatnya *bingung boo ni pisang mo diapain aja, sampe sekarang masih ada yg nangkring di kulkas*


Akhirnya setelah memutuskan 2 resep berbahan dasar pisang yang bisa disharing di MVB bulan ini *hostnya mbak Tiwi di Qatar sono*, resep es pisang ijo ini yang aku ajuin di MVB. Selain bikin es, aku juga bikin Banana Roll, sisa pisangnya sih dipake Mbah Putri bikin Pukis ama Kolak Pisang.

Berhubung bikin es ini pertama kali seumur-umur jadilah bingung luar biasa. Resep minta dari Mbak Yola di sini. Hanya saja sedikit aku modifikasi, resep yang aku posting di sini resep aslinya. Eh ya, kalo saranku sih buat teman-teman yg mo nyoba bikin, airnya dikurangi aja jumlahnya, trus klo kata Mbah Putriku sih airnya coba diganti ama santan biar adonannya lebih kalis dan ga keliatan lengket banget kayak yg aku bikin kemarin. Ntar aja deh kapan-kapan nyoba bikin lagi.

Es Pisang Ijo

Bahan-bahan:

• 40 gr tepung beras (aku nambahin 20 gr lagi pas bikin adonannya biar kalis, dicampur saat adonan pertama dah mendidih)
• 1/2 sdt garam
• 300 ml air
• 100 ml air daun suji (kemarin aku ga pake ini)
• 4 tetes pewarna hijau/pasta pandan (karena aku pake yg warna hijau muda jadinya warna pisang ijonya kurang ngejrenk)
• 5 buah pisang raja/kepok yang tua
• es serut (pake es yang biasa aja gpp, aku kemarin juga gitu)

Saus:

• 650 ml santan
• 50 gr tepung terigu
• 75 gr gula pasir
• 1 lbr daun pandan
• 1/4 sdt garam
• sirup cocopandan

Cara Membuat:

• Aduk rata tepung beras, garam, air, dan air daun suji. Tambahkan sedikit pewarna hijau/pasta pandan lalu rebus sambil diaduk-aduk sampai mendidih. Angkat.
• Tambahkan sedikit demi sedikit tepung beras sambil diaduk rata, lalu aduk lagi sampai kalis (tidak lengket). Ambil daun pisang, tipiskan adonan, taruh pisang diatasnya lalu balutkan dengan tepung hingga tertutup.
• Kukus pisang selama 20 menit. Angkat dan sisihkan.
• Rebus bahan saus sampai mendidih, angkat lalu dingkinkan.
• Potong-potong pisang hijau, tuangkan saus, es serut dan sirup merah.
• Hidangkan.
