Whisk 250g (one block) of defrosted Lurpak butter.
If the frozen butter is too hard you can try to microwave 30 seconds before whisking.
( OPTIONAL Add in 20g of sugars gradually, if needed, otherwise banana itself is sweet.)
Whisk two minutes until the mixture turns to light yellow or pale white in color,
Add in 4 eggs gradually,
Whisk for another three minutes until all mixed well.
Sift in 500 g ( 1 cup ) of self-raising flour
with <1/4 teaspoon (1g) of baking soda + Lemon/Lime Juice
and/or 3/4 to 1 teaspoon (3g) of baking powder.
Baking soda leaves a baked good when exposed to heat.
Need to neutralize with an acid (such as lemon/lime juice etc)
otherwise, the finished baked cake will likely have a metallic taste.
Baking powder contains baking soda. It is a mixture of baking soda, cream of tartar (a dry acid), and sometimes cornstarch. These days, most baking powder sold is double-acting. This means that the first leavening occurs when baking powder gets wet– like when you combine the dry and wet ingredients in the recipe. (This is why you cannot prepare some batters ahead of time to bake later– because the baking powder has already been activated.) The second leavening occurs when the baking powder is heated.
Double (first, second) acting.
Transfer and add the dry ingredients to the mixtures, continue to whisk.
Pour in the mashed banana.
A Quick minute Whisk till all is mixed well.
Wipe clean and turn on to preheat the oven at 180℃.
Transfer / pour all mixtures into the baking container.
