    Love Banana Bread? You really need to try this easy Banana and Pineapple Cake!

    Easy Banana and Pineapple Cake Recipe

    If you are looking for a kids activity these school holidays (which doesn’t involve chocolate!), you can’t go past this incredibly easy and yummy Banana and Pineapple Cake recipe.   There is mashing, measuring and mixing involved, what more could you ask for!?!?  It’s also a great opportunity to use up those brown bananas the kids refuse to eat.

    Easy Banana and Pineapple Cake Recipe

    You could add a simple icing to this loaf  but I prefer it without and it sure tastes delicious when eaten warm with a glass of milk. This recipe makes a large loaf, so I like to cut each slice in half for the kids, this also makes it the perfect size for a lunch box treat.

    Tips for Making this Banana and Pineapple Cake

    • It’s important to drain the excess pineapple juice, otherwise your loaf will be very soft in the centre.
    • If your bananas are very big (eg more than 100 grams in size) , I would just use one.
    • This recipe is freezer friendly.
    • You can make this recipe in a different size cake tin, however please not that the cooking time will vary.

    Looking for the Thermomix instructions for this recipe? You can find them here.

      Could you use butter instead of veg oil? Would it be the same amount?

        Hi Sarah, I have only tried subbing with coconut oil before (which was really yummy!) but don’t see why butter wouldn’t work. I’d use the same amount x

      No choc – I’m sure I’ll be a bit more excited after Easter – I’m still salivating over the choc scone cake – you just reminded me about.

      I am hoping to do some baking this week, and I’ve got a few bananas in the freezer so this might be the way to go.
      Plus, yum!
