Have been busy (or lazy) to update this space. School has been disrupting some of my nua-ing regime, but hey I am still alive to make some banana steam cakes this afternoon. :)
As I love steam cakes (some of them are really kawaii!), I picked up a recipe book from NTUC some time ago. Not to mention, I recently bought an Aerogaz cake stand mixer. less than $30 on Qoo10!

Masak-thoughts:
I actually forgot to add the oil..which caused the cake to be really dry. I tried to search high and low for ripe bananas (for a sweeter taste) but to no avail too :(
Nevertheless, still edible and I'm quite pleased with the appearance of these cutie cakes.
Time for tea!
