Suji Banana and Raisins Cake is here to stay on my list now. Well if you see of lately, I have found a new love in baking. And have posted many baking recipes too. While all were focused around healthy baking , making them tasty too was my concern. And in this process experimenting with flours is what I loved the most!
In this Suji Banana and Raisins Cake the fun was using banana and dates as the sweeters . Also avoiding lot of oil or butter too. So essentially banana and yoghurt gave that needed moisture and the tendency of Suji to swell up anyways helped it to sore higher. I can easily replace this for Sheera at home. Trust me for this, that by the time my son was home, I had finished half of it. The small bites make them so tasty and somehow banana in the bakes has its own amazing flavour.
If you love cakes and want to start healthy baking which is hassel free too..no sieving involved, this Suji Banana and Raisins Cake ,is a perfect recipe to start. So lets begin!
