Banana cake is possibly the easiest and tastiest cake to make. It’s so versatile too, as you can add whatever extra ingredients you would like to! Nuts, seeds, chocolate, fruit… anything you fancy. Previously, I have written a banana cake recipe with homemade oat flour (you can find that here!) for WILD magazine, but this time I am back with a slightly different recipe.

With this cake, I can justify having a huge slice… it has blueberries after all; they’re a fruit! Pair a yummy slice of this banana, blueberry and chocolate loaf with some fruit on the side and a dollop of soya cream or custard. It’s the perfect dessert!
