Very Banana Cake: For banana lover like me

 I always have a problem with bananas, well not that I don't like them, but my family will use them in any festivals (Chinese new year, ancestor worship, Hungry Ghost Festival, and etc you name it).

 Bananas will be the first on the shopping list, and they always end up blacken on the kitchen counter wait for being thrown away. I try to turn them into everything that I can but it's not enough. Most of the banana cake doesn't use a lot of bananas for one recipe. 
So I think that I have to create a recipe that uses a lot of it. With try and test (while I tried the recipes, a lot of bananas went to heaven, not the garbage bag, haha, I'm glad that I didn't have to throw them away). I put as much banana as I can into one small cake. 
Finally, I got the recipe that squeezes 4 bananas into it. This recipe needs 2 bananas for the cake (mash and mix into the batter), and 2 bananas for the topping (slice and place on top). The cake comes out moist but not damp or too sweet. You can use banana when it becomes black (it will be sweeter), even for the one that is used for topping. I add the Demerara sugar to create more texture for the cake but if you don't want you can skip it ^^.
Try this cake with a cup of tea will be a great choice or a cup of milk is good for children too. Well, if you have the blackened bananas waiting for you at the counter, try this recipe I think you will love it (and maybe you will end up buying more bananas without fear like I do ^_*).
