Pour batter into a 8 inch round tube pan. Bake at a preheated over at 170 deg C for 45-50 minutes or until skewer inserted into center of cake comes out clean.
As soon as the cake is removed from oven, quickly invert the pan and let it cool.

Notes:
When making cookies or cakes, minimum mixing is required to ensure minimum formation of gluten. Formation of gluten result in dense cakes.
Please adjust weight of castor sugar according to the sweetness of bananas.
