Banana Chiffon Cake
Report
This Banana Chiffon Cake is light, fluffy, and has just the right amount of sweetness. It's full of banana flavor yet supremely tender. Be sure to use a tube pan with removable bottom, and don't oil that pan.

Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 3 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp table salt
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 5 egg yolks
- ½ cup cold water
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup very ripe mashed banana approx. 2 bananas
- 8 egg whites
- ½ tsp. cream of tartar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325F, with rack on lower middle position.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined. Make a well in the center. Add oil, unbeaten yolks, water, vanilla, and mashed bananas. Beat until smooth, about 2 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, beat together the egg whites and cream of tartar on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 4 min. Be sure it's at stiff peaks, not soft peaks.
- Using a rubber spatula, gently fold together the banana mixture into the egg white mixture. Carefully fold repeatedly until batter is incorporated, but do not over-handle the batter.
- Pour batter unto an ungreased tube pan with removable center/bottom. Bake 60 minutes or just until toothpick inserted in center comes out almost clean (a few small tender crumbs attached is perfect.)
- Invert the pan over a plate; keep pan inverted until cake is completely cool. Once cooled, use a very thin knife and run it carefully around all edges of the cake to loosen cake. Turn upside down onto a plate, and carefully remove the bottom/center of pan from the cake.
