If I were to link bananas and berries for a cake, I’d choose raspberries. Here’s why, for a vegan banana pound cake, we’ll need—

 

2 bananas

3 tbsp plant-based butter (e.g. peanut butter)

60ml coconut milk

35g coconut oil

120g flour

4g baking powder

60g dates

15g walnuts

90g raspberries

 

How to bake it?

Mash the bananas using a fork. Add the plant-based butter, the coconut milk, and the coconut oil.

Slowly mix in the flour and the baking powder. Clean the dates and walnuts and cut (break) them into pieces.

Add the raspberries last because they're so fragile – either fresh or defrosted. Moreover, they tend to fall to the bottom of the bakes. The pound cake will also deflate when you remove it from the oven.

First of all, though, you should bake it: 35 minutes in the preheated oven, at 180⁰C, in a pound cake baking pan.

It’s delicious and perfect for breakfast!
