directions

1. Preheat oven to 160 degrees Celsius.
2. Grease or spray a rectangular oven baking dish (roughly 15cm x 25 cm).
3. Mix banana puree and yoghurt well. Stir in sugar and beat till sugar dissolves.
4. Add bran, flour and baking powder to wet ingredients and mix well.
5. Now add bicarb to boiling water and add this to your mixture and stir well. Bake at 160 degree Celsius for 45 minutes to an hour or till the cake is golden brown.
6. A skewer might come out slightly sticky as this cake is very moist and dense. The cake should pull away from the sides of the dish on its own.
