You can make various cakes and tortes from bananas
You can use bananas not only for a no-bake cake but also to prepare the Mole cake (Krtkův dort), where banana is a basic ingredient. Besides this fruit you will need oil, eggs, cocoa, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, and baking powder. For the cream prepare chocolate, vanilla sugar, lemon juice and whipping cream.
The filling will be the bananas. You can make it either as a classic cake or on a baking tray. First whip the eggs with the sugar. Add the oil and finally the flour. After mixing, add the cocoa and the baking powder. Pour the batter onto a tray and bake for about 7 – 8 minutes at 200 degrees. Grate the chocolate finely, add the vanilla sugar and lemon juice to the cream. Add the grated chocolate to the cream and let it set in the fridge. Slice the bananas into rounds, place them into the batter that you hollowed out around the edges of the base. Spread the whipped cream over it and sprinkle with crumbled dough.
