How to make banana pumpkin cake

Step 1 - preparations

• If you don't have pumpkin puree, prepare it in advance - I like to bake pumpkin in the oven - if you don't know how to do it, read the notes under the recipe.
• Line the baking pan with parchment paper or grease it with butter and sprinkle with breadcrumbs or flour.
• Preheat the oven to 180 degrees (top/bottom mode).

Step 2 - preparing the batter

• Transfer the bananas to a bowl and mash them thoroughly with a fork.
  approx. 170 g bananas
  
• Add pumpkin puree and oil to them - mix thoroughly.
  250 g pumpkin puree, 80 ml oil
  
• Transfer the flour to a larger bowl, add sugar, baking powder, and pumpkin spice - mix with a spoon.
  300 g wheat flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice, 100 g sugar
  
• Transfer the wet ingredients to the dry ones and mix thoroughly - the batter will be thick.
  
• If you have trouble mixing the batter, you can add a little more oil or add water or milk (plant-based for vegans).

Step 3 - baking the pumpkin cake

• Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and place it in the preheated oven.
  
• If you are baking the cake in a loaf pan, bake it for about 50 minutes - until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. If you are baking in a square pan, reduce the baking time to about 35-40 minutes.
• After baking, let the cake cool, and before serving, sprinkle with powdered sugar.
