African Banana Peanut Cake Preparation:Method:Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy then add the eggs one at a time and mix into the butter and sugar combination. Add the dry ingredients to this mix, alternating with the mashed bananas and mixing until just combined then add half the chopped peanuts. Tip the batter into a well-greased 22 x 12cm loaf pan and sprinkle the remaining peanuts over the top. Place in an oven pre-heated to 170°C and bake for about an hour, or until a skewer inserted into the centre of the cake comes out clean.
