Preparation

Step 1

Preheated oven to 180C (356F).
Cream the butter with sugar with an electric mixer until light yellow, about 4 to 5 minutes.
Add 1/3 of whisked egg into butter mixture at a time and mix well between adds. Combine thoroughly. Pour in the milk and combine well.
Add smashed bananas. Combine well with a spatula or wooden spoon.
Mix flour, baking soda and salt together. Sift into the banana mixture and combine well. Sprinkle walnuts and fold in. Reserve some walnuts to sprinkle over the surface of batter. Transfer batter into a baking mould. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until lightly brown and cooked through. Test with a needle. If it comes out clean, the cake is done. Slice and serve on a platter.
