Easy Lazy Banana Coffee Cake

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This post contains an affiliate link with Javy Coffee.

My husband and I could never seem to finish our bananas before it becomes overripe. But the minute I use them to make this easy and lazy Banana Coffee Cake, it’s gone in a flash! The texture might not come out as similar to the traditional banana bread, though if you don’t really mind that, then this is perfect for you! I generally use overripe bananas in baking as they have a sweeter flavor and also results in moist cakes.

Essentially, Banana Coffee Cake is banana bread topped with a crumbly layer of sugar. In this case, it’s sugar and sliced bananas. Although you don’t really need to use coffee in coffee cakes (I know, it can be really confusing), it helps in enhancing the cake flavor. And this coffee concentrate from Javy Coffee complements the bananas really well!

Once you put this baby in the oven to bake, the scent that rushes through the air can make you salivate. The bananas, the butter, the sugar – simply delicious! I hope you’ll give this a try!

Perfect for sharing but I honestly can finish this all on my own! I’m keeping it simple for this one but sometimes I like to add tomatoes, avocado and sour cream.

This Malaysian style soy sauce eggs is one of my favorite easy meals and it’s also a comfort food not just for me but for many Malaysians. I ate this a lot growing up and during my student days. Probably one of the first recipes I learned how to cook!
The sauce is just sweet soy sauce (kicap/kecap manis), light soy sauce and water!

Savory Oatmeal @farahjeats I’m a savory kind o Savory Oatmeal @farahjeats 
I’m a savory kind of girl and have always preferred my oatmeals savory. Some people think it’s weird, I say don’t knock it until you’ve tried it. The best part? You can be creative with this! I’ve added pesto to my oatmeal before and it was delicious.
I also prefer a thicker oatmeal, add more water if you don’t. 
Would you try this or are you sticking to your sweet oatmeal? 😋
