Ingredients for Banana Cassava Cake

  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup thick coconut cream
  • 2 ripe bananas (about 1 ½ cups mashed)
  • Cassava

How to Make Banana Cassava Cake

  1. Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and lightly grease an 8-inch square baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, beat together 1 cup of thick coconut cream and ½ cup of granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add 2 ripe, mashed bananas (about 1 ½ cups mashed) and mix until thoroughly combined.
  4. Gently fold in 2 cups of finely grated cassava until just incorporated. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
