hi MM. i love banana bread! :) I’ve recently tried to bake my own (cost cutting, and i realized how easy it was). Anyway, aside from streusel topping and a cinnamon-sugar topping, what other toppings can i put on my banana bread? I’ve tried one banana bread (i do not remember where) with a kind of sticky-sweet top that i can’t figure out how to make. any ideas? thanks.

I just can’t resist posting. Banana cakes transport me to my childhood (although I am still quite young hehe). My lola would bake them for no apparent reason. Then again, do we need any reason for good food? I remember being fascinated by those weird black squiggles in the cake. I love banana cake!

zena for the cake part mix the mangosteen jam with still warm coffee mixture â€“ hot water and coffee to thin out the jam and the sour cream – yogurt is also a good substitute for sour cream. If you want more mangosteen flavor then add more jam but cut down on sugar since you will brush the still warm cake with mangosteen syrup â€“ boil the jam again no seeds and water just boil it to mix the jam and water no need to overboil. We are using the same mangosteen jam from Kablon Farms. When I make this cake I do not use any mixer. Just big fork. I beat the eggs well with a fork set it aside. Shift all the dry ingredients together and keep in a big bowl make a well in the center, put in all the wet ingredients and start mixing in from the center in circular motion and work your way out towards the edge of the bowl. Before you throw your pan in the oven bang it three times on your countertop to get rid of air bubbles or pockets. Good luck on your next try.
