Thermomix Banana Cake - Yes it's taken me this long to do one! Have you seen how many Thermomix Banana Cakes are out there?! Each one has something a little different! This is my take on a recipe that I had been using for years. Someone asked me for a Thermomix Banana Cake and I sent them to the Recipe Community but she came back and told me that none of them were what she wanted. So I pulled out the trusty All Recipes recipe I had been using and converted it for her.
Now at least once a fortnight I get a picture and a thank you for converting. It is cute though to see the kids with frosting all over their faces and big smiles! :)

Made for kids Lunch boxes again this morning. Of course some slices were eaten before they got to their lunch boxes 😆
I prefer this recipe as it’s light and fluffy. I don’t add any frosting /icing but you could. Thanks 😊

I used 3 bananas. Great flavour and a wonderfully moist cake. The cream cheese icing was perfect. Will definitely be adding this to my favourite recipe list.
