INGREDIENTS

- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 100 g dark chocolate 70%, optional
EQUIPMENT

METHOD
- Place the bananas in a mixing bowl and mash them with a fork. Add the eggs and olive oil and whisk to combine.
- Add the flour, cinnamon and baking powder and whisk again just until combined (do not overmix to keep the cake fluffy).

NOTES
- For a moister texture, use very ripe bananas with brown spots.
- You can replace some flour with oat flour for extra fibre.
