Chocolate banana cake with Birch sugar*? We have the best recipe for the cake with chocolate cream!
A fluffy chocolate banana cake and a coffee - what could be better? Nothing at all! :) We have declared the chocolate cake with bananas to our absolute favorite. Since nothing comes quickly after!
Chocolate banana cake is the perfect dessert for chocoholics like us. The bananas in the cake make the guilty conscience disappear. But let's be honest: In between, you must and should also treat yourself.
What is special about the chocolate banana cake?
We do not use refined sugar! We bake chocolate banana cake with Birch sugar* (Xylitol*, Xucker). It doesn't send blood sugar levels on a rollercoaster and doesn't give caries bacteria a chance.
It is important that you use ripe bananas, they give the cake a special sweetness. Then you also save some of the birch sugar.
And instead of white flour, just use spelt flour. And your cake is as healthy as a cake can be.
Chocoholics beware: This is the chocolatiest cake ever!
What you need to pay attention to when baking banana cake with chocolate cream
The chocolate cake with bananas should be eaten within 2 days. This is due to the fresh fruit. It could happen that the bananas otherwise go bad. And logical: the cake must be stored in the refrigerator.
The basis for our small chocolate cream cake is a sponge cake dough with cocoa. In the chocolate cream is an extra portion of baking Cocoa powder*. Yummy :)
Important: You must give the cake time. Both when cooling the cream and when cooling the cake itself. If you are too hasty, you will make quite a mess.
The cream begins to run even when the cake is only lukewarm. So better wait a little longer. I always prepare the sponge cake a day in advance. And the next day I assemble the cake.
Yummy: Extra juicy banana bread with cocoa!
Important ingredients that you need for the recipe, I've picked out for you. You can find these two on Amazon.
