3. Next make the banana cake. Mash the bananas in the magimix, then add the sugar, marg, eggs, flour, and baking powder. Whiz till well blended.

Add the milk and whiz again.

4. Poor mixture into tin, then spoon the rhubarb on top.

5. Bake for about 50 mins, cook on rack.

  1. Made this last night for guests, served with custard- it was delicious and the perfect way of using up rhubarb and bananas that needed eating. Thank you!
