Zebra Cake, Bread, Thing


So here is the recipe as I printed it out at work. I made notes on how I thought it would be best to incorporate bananas into it. Less oil, less flour, and of course bananas. Obviously I left this at work so when I made it at home none of those things, except the bananas, happened. I ended up using the recipe as it was and just substituting the oil for 2 pureed bananas. This made for some unpredictable results.







So to get this to work you alternate spoonfuls of each batter right in the middle of the pan and they just push each other out. With each ring being roughly 3 Tablespoons, it took me about 15 minutes. Next time I think I will put the batters in piping bags.




It ended up being more like banana bread than a cake, and I had to bake it for almost an hour (i think). Looks pretty though.





As you can see my stripes aren't quite as nice as in the recipe picture. I think that my batter was probably a little runny.

Next time, add another banana or 2 and maybe another half cup of flour.

All in all it was edible and everyone at work thought it was good, so that's all that matters.

Baking now!?! No seriously, who will be in the delivery room and who will I be smoking cigars with in the lobby?
