Banana Cake (Jamaican) Recipe

• cake
• 1/2 c. butter 1 stick
• 1 c. sugar
• 2 x Large eggs
• 3 x ripe bananas pureed
• 2 c. flour
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg
• 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda baking soda
• 1/2 c. cashew nuts minced Merringue
• 4 x egg whites
• 1 c. sugar
• 2 Tbsp. light rum

1. Cream butter & sugar; beat in Large eggs one at a time.
2. Mix in mashed bananas & flour sifted with soda & nutmeg.
3. Add in cashew nuts.
4. Bake about 50 min in lined, greased cake tin.
5. zosha's notes: skip the "lining", just butter & flour.
6. Generally a cake tin would mean an 8" round cake pan.
7. You could make it in a loaf pan as well.
8. The meringue is obviously part of the cake, but it doesn't say what you are supposed to do with it.
9. I suspect which it is one of those things you are supposed to know.
10. So here is my guess ... spread the meringue after the cake has cooked & cooled and bake a little while longer.
11. Meringue: beat egg whites, add in sugar & rum gradually and continue beating till mix holds a peak.
