Banana, Chocolate Chip, Blackberry Cake Recipe

 

This recipe has nothing to do with zombies or survival but it is a great way of using up any over ripe bananas you have in the house. Its something a little bit different to do with your blackberries, I cant believe how well the flavours work together! if your like me and have baking items at home already its so cheap to make and healthy compared to some cakes. 

I insist that if you make this you HAVE to make my blackberry and chilli jam  recipe to smoother on the top!!
Now my mission is to alter the recipe so it can be cooked on an open fire or in some nice cast iron! Or possibly make it thicker so it can be toasted on green sticks, any tips from you guys are more than welcome!

Ingredients   

• 115g Butter
• 165g Brown Sugar
• 2 eggs
• 3 Spotty Bananas
• 1tsp vanilla
• 260g Self Raising Flour
• 1tsp Bicarbonate of Soda
• Pinch of Salt
• 1 Small Bag of Milk Chocolate Chips
• 20 Blackberries 
• Optional Tsp of spice Cinnamon/nutmeg/all spice/ginger

Recipe

• Preheat oven to gas mark 4 or a moderate heat (My oven does hot, Really Hot and HOT- you know your own oven so gage accordingly)
• Measure out Butter and Sugar and mash the two together with a fork in a large mixing bowl until the mixture is smooth
• Whisk your eggs together to break up the yokes and mix with the butter and sugar.
• Mash your bananas with a fork into the mixture
• Add your vanilla to this wet mixture
• In a separate bowl mix your flour, baking soda, salt and any spices you may wish to add
• Add the flour mixture to your wet mixture and start to combine the ingredients making sure you get all the flour from the outside. 
• Add chocolate chips and mix a little more
• Now add your blackberries (you may want to leave a few back to decorate the top) very gently mix the blackberries in.
• line a cake tin or bread tin with grease proof paper and poor in the mixture
• cook for 35-45 mins in the centre of a moderate oven or until your tester comes out clean

 Now make the jam from this recipe - http://zombiesurvivalfoodbible.blogspot.co.uk/2013/09/blackberry-chilli-jam.html Once you try the two together you will be wanting to make a second cake in no time!
