The ingredients that you'll need are: 

  • 4 super ripe bananas 
  • ½ cup of oil 
  • 4 eggs 
  • 4 cups of raisens (if you don't like raisens, use chocolate chips) 
  • 2 cups of oats
  • 2 tbls of baking powder 
  • cinnamon to taste

First, blend the bananas, eggs, and oil together in a food processor or with an electric mix until you've reached a homogeneous consistency. Next, add in the raisens and continue to blend the ingredients together.

Now, add in the oats, cinnamon, and baking powder and continue to mix. Once you've reached the perfect consistency, place the mixture in a buttered baking dish, previously greased with butter and covered with a thin layer of flour (to keep the mixture from sticking to the pan). Put in the oven (preheated to 180°c or 350°f) and bake for 30-35 minutes. 

Remove the pan from the oven and let the cake mixture set until cooled. Serve as a healthy and tasty treat to your guests and they'll be sure to be impressed!
