Method

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks with sugar until pale and creamy. Add the melted butter, milk, and mashed bananas.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the egg whites into the banana mixture until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, ensuring it spreads evenly.
Bake for 45-55 minutes until golden brown. The center may jiggle slightly when done.
Allow the cake to cool in the dish for about 30 minutes before slicing.
