3 smushed bananas
3/4 cup sugar
1 & 2/3 cup of wholemeal SR flour
1/4 cup apple sauce
2 eggs
Mix. Bake for an hour at 180 degrees.
You can swap the bananas for stewed apples (not too soft) or any other fruit. Exchange the smushed bananas for about a cup and a half of whatever fruit.
you can also add nuts, sultanas, chocolate.... whatever...it's the best and easiest cake recipe out there!!!! (my opinion anyway!)
Makes 8 good sized muffins, just cook for 25 mins instead of an hour.

: more options!!!
DH usually won't eat cake but for his birthday he relents.
Like Bec I think it's better to make something small that you can finish on the day instead of a big cake.
DH's favourite is pavlovas so I just make a few mini pavs and pile them high with fruit.
How about pumpkin and ricotta muffins? They're yummy.
Still not sure what i'll make...i've woken up (from next to no sleep) feeling sick- so don't think i can make it down to the shops to get extra ingredients.
The carrot cake with cream cheese would've been nice- but all the recipes i found i had 1 ingredient- that varied each time from each recipe- missing (eg- one had sour cream, another was almond meal). Also don't have any cream cheese either. The banana cake sounds yummy too- i'm just missing the apple sauce...though i do have some apples which i possibly make some of my own- hmm will see how i go this morning. I've even got all the ingredients to make a pavalova except cream.
So might have to stick to the chocolate cupcakes...unless anyone has any more recipe suggestions?
Oh and Tanstar- i would still love it if you could share the berry sponge recipe, please. I know i don't have any berries- but it sounds delicious- so might give it a try for the next family birthday cake.
So thanks again and any other ideas (including recipes if possible)- please keep them coming.
