Banana and Blueberry cake with cream cheese icing.

Each week, hubby and I like to have something baked in the house, ready to eat for afternoon tea or take to work. The past week, it's been a very delicious Banana and Blueberry cake.

 

I followed the recipe for my chocolate banana cake, but left out the cocoa and added 3/4 cup of blueberries. I also iced it using my homemade cream cheese, and it was oh so delicious!

 

 

You will need:

 

1 1/2-2 ripe bananas, mashed

1 egg

1 cup rapadura sugar

1 tbs honey

1/4 cup butter, melted

1/4 cup milk

3/4 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

pinch salt

1 1/2 cups spelt flour (or normal flour)

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

 

Throw everything in a large mixing bowl. Mix well. Pour into a greased cake tin, or patty pans, and bake for 30-35 min at 180C or until a skewer comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack before icing.

 

Honey Vanilla Cream Cheese Icing:

1/3-1/2 cup homemade cream cheese or store bought

1 tsp vanilla

1 tbs honey, or to taste

 

Mix the icing ingredients in a bowl until smooth and creamy and the flavour is to your liking.

 

 

Spread onto your cooled cake. Cut a generous slice for yourself and enjoy!
