oh no...i got the overripe bananas situation! i remembered i still have them, but too late! they're now brownish and eeeky soft. still, i dont want to just throw these away.
banana cake sounds good, but i don't have an oven. got to think half-full... what is my alternative? could it be....my trustworthy microwave?
<googling....>
aha! here's one interesting recipe that just might be the solution.
thanks to Avery at Avery Cooks for this recipe (refer to link below).
<cooking...>
i tweaked a bit coz i wasn't sure of the banana size... & i didn't have cinnamon on hand, as well as non-stick oil spray.. Didn't put Peanut butter toppings too. And I nuked for an additional 30secs.
Microwaved Banana Oats Cakes
1 banana, mashed
6 tbsp quick-cook oatmeals
2 tbsp brown sugar
makes 2 servings.
- mix banana, oatmeal & sugar.
- spread 1 serving into parchment-paper-lined microwaveable container
- nuke on high for 2minutes
- let cool for a minute and indulge!
i paired mine w/ coffee, the kids' paired w/ a glass of OJ.
aroma in the kitchen was so heavenly while 'cookin'! best of all, my kids loved em in today's PM snacktime!
my lessons learned:
enjoy! ^_^

my lessons learned:
- nuke too long, cakes get dry. more vitamins lost too, i suppose.
- add too much oatmeal, cake too dry.
enjoy! ^_^
