Eggless Banana Sheet Cake

I don't have a sheet pan, but i want to bake a sheet cake for quite a long time. I had this idea of baking a banana sheet cake with a thick chocolate fudge icing over it. Made this few days back and it was perfect. I made this using the ingredients which i have on hand and the cake turned out super soft and spongy more than i expected.

I have been in banana cake mood for quite a long time. It is mainly because of the abundant of banana available in the house at that time. I was baking banana bread, banana muffins and then this.

What is Banana Sheet Cake?

Banana cake batter baked in a sheet pan to create thin slices of cake. Usually sheet cakes has an icing poured over it. This banana sheet cake has a chocolate fudge icing on top.

This cake is great with a cup of chai, coffee or milk. The cake itself is not so sweet, it is perfect. If you want a sweeter cake then increase the amount of sugar in it. But i think the sweetness from the frosting is enough to make it perfectly sweet.

Even though i call this as sheet cake, but the cake is little on the thicker side. Because i used a small square pan for baking this. If you have a sheet pan, then use that or a bigger pan will work good. But keep in mind, the thinner the cake batter is on the pan, the less time you have to bake this. Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you.

Ingredients for Banana Sheet Cake

Mashed Ripe Banana - Use ripe bananas for the best tasting cake. The riper the banana the more tasty the cake is.

All Purpose Flour - I used plain flour for the cake.You could use whole wheat flour. Half whole wheat and half plain flour can be used as well.

Oil - Use oil or melted butter in the cake. I found that oil makes cake moist for longer.

Ingredients for Chocolate Fudge Icing

Dark Chocolate - Good quality chocolate has to be used for the icing for rich chocolate taste.

Butter - Butter adds shine to the icing also it makes the icing set.

Confectioners Sugar - this is what gives sweetness to the cake and makes it set.

Cocoa Powder - Always use good quality cocoa for best taste.

How to Make Banana Sheet Cake

Preheat oven to 180 degree C. Line a large baking pan with parchment paper and grease well. Set aside. I used a 20 cm square cake pan.
Take flour, baking soda, baking powder in a bowl and mix well.
In another bowl take sugar, oil, vanilla, mashed banana, water and mix well.
Pour this into the dry ingredients and fold gently to combine.
Spoon this mixture in to the prepared pan and bake for 15 to 20 mins untill a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Now Remove it from oven and set aside.
Now make icing. Take dark chocolate and butter in a sauce pan and melt on low heat till melted. Set aside.
Take icing sugar and cocoa powder in a bowl and mix well. Pour this chocolate mix in it and mix well.
Add in vanilla and mix well. Now pour this over the cake and put it in fridge to set for an hour.
Slice and serve.
