As often I bake tea time cakes for my family & everyone enjoy a slice of it with a cup of hot tea or coffee. I just love baking in weekend and stock it for a week. Baked this amazing Eggless Chocolate Banana Walnut Cake for my elder sister, she just love anything made with Chocolate and banana. I baked it late night for her and gave her a surprise by sending this cake in the midnight. As she was awake and busy with her office work, she was completely blown away by the surprise and couldn't believe it for a while and was very very happy 😁. So it made my night!!!

In this recipe, I have used overriped bananas which adds natural sweetener to the cake & makes the cake spongy & soft too. This Eggless Chocolate Banana Cake is made with wheat flour, jaggery powder, ripe banana, yogurt & Cocoa Powder.

I have used very less amount of jaggery powder but you can add little more.
For best results, use overripe bananas for natural sweetener.
Don't overmix the cake batter.

  I was wondering the same thing so I Googled it. Here's what I found; "Jaggery is an unprocessed, unrefined, organic sweetener from sugarcane. Rich in minerals, soluble fiber, and low glycemic, it is rich in flavor. It is a cross between spicy molasses and buttery caramel. Alkaline in your body when eaten, it is also used as a digestive aide." I read that dark brown sugar can be used as a substitute. Hope this helps.

  If you substitute brown sugar--be sure to add a bit of molassus for the flavor balance.

  If you don't get jaggery then you can use cane sugar or brown sugar instead

Wheat flour makes a very heavy cake, how about half wheat and half regular flour?
