Banana Sponge Cake

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 2 hr 20 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   Required ingredients. I baked this cake for a children's birthday for 10 children. If you are counting on fewer guests, reduce the amount of ingredients by 2 times, since the website is very convenient to do this

2. STEP 2

   

   We beat the eggs into a deep container; for better beating, they should be well cooled

3. STEP 3

   

   Add sugar

4. STEP 4

   

   Beat with a mixer for about 5-7 minutes until the mass doubles and thickens and the sugar dissolves.

5. STEP 5

   

   Add flour in portions and mix using a mixer at low speed or using a spatula. We need the same air bubbles to remain in the dough that will make it airy

6. STEP 6

   

   I used special dough attachments

7. STEP 7

   

   Grease the mold with butter and sprinkle with flour. If you doubt that the dough will stick, it is better to cover it with baking paper

8. STEP 8

   

   Pour the dough into the prepared form and place it in an oven already preheated to 180 degrees for 35 minutes (if you have reduced the amount of ingredients, then for 25-30 minutes)

9. STEP 9

   

   We determine readiness with a wooden toothpick - it should be dry.

10. STEP 10

    

    We remove the biscuit from the mold and let it cool, and only after it has cooled completely will we continue to work with it

11. STEP 11

    

    While our sponge cake is cooling, it’s time to prepare the cream - it can be anything you like, but I think sour cream is ideal here, which, by the way, is very easy to prepare

12. STEP 12

    

    Add sugar to sour cream (preferably thicker and not sour)

13. STEP 13

    

    Add a packet of vanillin or vanilla sugar

14. STEP 14

    

    Mix well - and the cream is ready, the sugar should completely dissolve

15. STEP 15

    

    Cut off the top of the cooled sponge cake - this will be the lid of the cake.

16. STEP 16

    

    Carefully remove the middle

17. STEP 17

    

    Lubricate the base with cream

18. STEP 18

    

    Then we place the whole bananas directly - I saw the idea on our wonderful website)

19. STEP 19

    

    Fill the empty spaces with biscuit pieces

20. STEP 20

    

    Lubricate with cream

21. STEP 21

    

    Place pieces of remaining biscuit on top

22. STEP 22

    

    Lubricate with the remaining cream

23. STEP 23

    

    Cover the cake with a lid

24. STEP 24

    

    Now let's prepare the glaze - you can make it from cocoa, but I prefer chocolate glaze

25. STEP 25

    

    Add a little milk to the chocolate

26. STEP 26

    

    Melt in a water bath, preferably in a water bath rather than in the microwave

27. STEP 27

    

    At the same time, melt the butter using any available method.

28. STEP 28

    

    The chocolate should be completely melted and runny.

29. STEP 29

    

    Now add melted butter little by little to the chocolate and mix

30. STEP 30

    

    The glaze is homogeneous, shiny and very fragrant.

31. STEP 31

    

    Cover the cake with icing

32. STEP 32

    

    Decorate to your liking - I sprinkled with coconut flakes. Refrigerate for soaking for at least 4-5 hours, preferably overnight

33. STEP 33

    

    I prepared a cake for a children's anniversary - thanks to the fact that all the ingredients are simple and natural, I gave it to even the youngest guests without fear

34. STEP 34

    

    It looks so beautiful in cross-section - the kids really like it

35. STEP 35

    

    Enjoy your tea!

I baked a banana sponge cake for a family tea party. I reduced the amount of ingredients by half (the site’s calculator is very helpful - it’s so convenient!) When beating eggs for a sponge cake, I make sure to add a pinch of salt. I baked the biscuit in a slow cooker for 45 minutes at 150 degrees. I started decorating the cake only in the evening (the sponge cake had time to cool and rest)))) My cake is small, so I cut the bananas lengthwise and in half. It soaked in the refrigerator all night. The cake turned out wonderful, fragrant, moist, tender! Everyone really liked this “banana stuffed cake”. Thanks for the recipe, nasstin!
