Many people assume when baking that you need to use butter, but using oil makes for a very easy alternative. No creaming of the butter and the sugar enables this cake to be quite literally thrown together in just a few minutes. Served either hot or cold this is a deliciously moist cake and it’s a great way for using up over ripe bananas.
