With just a small bit of ingenuity, turn everyday food into something cute using Kaori’s Easy Recipe! With a few simple ideas, an ordinary recipe magically transforms into a cute dish. In this recipe, I'll show you how to make a delicious banana cake that is tasty even if refrigerated! Ingredients
Makes a 18cm pound cake2 ripe bananas100g unsalted butter50g granulated sugar2 eggs100g weak flour 1 Bring the butter to room temperature and mix it with the sugar until it becomes white. I used unsalted margarine for this. 2 Gradually add both the egg whites and yolks and pour slowly into the mixture while mixing. Mash the banana with a fork, add to the bowl, and mix. 3 Sieve in the flour and mix lightly. 4 Bake at 160℃ for 40-45 minutes and it's ready! I used a 15cm pound cake tin and muffin tin to make mine. If using a muffin tin, bake for 30 minutes. Leave to cool and use the edge of the pound cake tin to cut ears. Finish by using a chocolate pen to draw on Rilakkuma's face. Kaori invites you into her world of character-themed food dishes in her recipe series. Be sure to check out her Instagram where she has uploaded many pictures of her character dishes! Kaori Kubota (@kaopan27) I live in Hokkaido and I love to make character themed foods, desserts and pastries♡ I want to see my family smile, so I enjoy putting in a bit of effort to make character foods and changing food into something cute♡ You can see more of my character foods and character bento boxes on my Instagram page → @kaopan72
