Banana cake from Vietnam - Bahn chuoi nuong

Here is an other banana cake i've been tested from this old book i've found again while sorting out my books ^^
It's delicious and so does agree my boyfriend too ^^

I think i've got at least already 10 boxes of books from all kind and it's not finished yet !

You will need :
4 big mature bananas so they have all their flavour
200 g of flour
100 g of starch
200 g of sugar (or some others substitutes)
3 dl of coco milk ( around 11 oz)
1 vanilla clove
20g of butter (or substitute)

Recipie for 6 banana fans ^^

It's quite quick to prepare but the cooking i don't know really because it was written 30 mins in the haven around 150 ° but i had to cook it more than 1h 1/2 with 180° to get it eatable. I suggest to you to get a dish not longer than 30 cm and to watch out until it seems ready

Here is a picture of the final result si you can see what the inside must look like ^^


1. Start the oven for baking at 150°. You need to butter the dish for the bake.

2. in an other dish filter Flour, starch. You need then to mix up flour, starch, sugar. Open the vanilla clove and get the tiny vanilla sands to mix it up with the rest. Then add the coco milk. You mix it up all together so you end with a pastry.

3. get the skin off the bananas. Cut each banana in thin slices. Incorporate delicately them in the pastry. Get the whole pastry in the baking dish, and start the oven.

4. let it bake around 30 mins, until the cake has golden. When ready let cool outside the oven around 10 mins . ready to eat or get it in the fridge and eat it cold and fresh !! miam!!

Gynie, do you know another word for "starch"? It mean several different things in English including the stuff you put on you clothes bfore you iron them to make them crisp or stiff. Tell us what you call it in French and maybe someone will know what it really is in English!

Looks like it could be potato flour.

Yes, it is flour made from potatoes.

Gynie, it sounds nice, but I think it's going to be very fattening.

gynie a dit…

yes some potatoes flour or something like ^^

it's not really fat as you need butter only for the dish. But i'ts not a light cake ^^ you need to eat this one with little slices ^^
