Tips & Tricks

  1. Use very ripe bananas (with black spots) for maximum sweetness and moisture.

  2. If you don't have peanut butter, you can use Nutella, almond butter, or a spoon of Greek yogurt.

  3. For an extra gooey texture, add 1 tbsp chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate before microwaving.

  4. Start with 1 minute of microwave time. Overcooking can make the cake dry.

  5. If you don't have oil, use melted butter or ghee for a richer flavor.

  6. For a fluffier texture, add 1/4 tsp baking powder along with baking soda.
