Notes

For perfecting the cake, you can substitute ripe bananas with unsweetened applesauce, avoid overmixing to keep it fluffy, and consider adding nuts, dried fruits, or Halal-certified chocolate chips for extra flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week, or freeze slices wrapped in plastic and foil.
