I was wondering about the vinegar, as I’ve never come across it in a banana cake before,can you tell me the purpose of this please?
From Google: “Vinegar is a surprisingly common ingredient in baked goods, considering that it has such a sharp flavor. But as an acid, vinegar is often included in cake and cookie batters to react with baking soda and start the chemical reaction needed to produce carbon dioxide and give those batters a lift as they bake”
Can I make loaves from this recipe?
Absolutely!
Made ‘em yesterday, yummy!! I used gluten-free flour. Next time I think I’ll add more chocolate chips for moisture & goodness. So good! Thank you for sharing recipe.
