How to Make Honey Yogurt Banana Cake
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease your pan.
In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth and creamy.
Add honey, yogurt, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla. Whisk until fully combined—this mixture should look silky and slightly thick.
In another bowl, mix flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Don’t overmix—just until everything comes together.
Pour the batter into your prepared pan and smooth the top.
Bake for 30–35 minutes, until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
Let it cool slightly… then slice into that soft, fluffy cake and enjoy that warm banana-honey aroma filling your kitchen
