Bake a delicious banana walnut cake!

How to bake a yummy banana walnut cake?
 
1) Take 2 cups maida, sift it with 2 tsp of baking powder. Keep aside.
 
2) Beat 4 eggs till they are fluffy, add one + three fourth cups of sugar to the eggs, blend till creamy
 
3) Add a cup of melted butter to the egg and sugar mixture. (Best is to use milk cream/ malai)
 
4) Take the mixture out from the blender in a big mixing bowl
 
5) Blend 2 bananas with half a cup of milk in the blender
 
6) Add small quantity of maida and baking powder mixture to the egg, cream and sugar mixture and mix(gently)
 
7) Keep adding maida in small quantities and mixing, this avoids lumps.... dont mix it too hard... do this by hand and not by a blender.
 
8) In the end gently fold in banana and milk mixture
 
9) Toss in half a cup of coarsely chopped walnuts.... dont make them fine.. they taste heavenly melting in the mouth! :) .... stir the mixture gently, with oodles of love!
 
10) Grease a baking dish...add the mixture, let it bake on 180 degree farenhite for 1 hour and 15 mins.. (ull hav to figure out the temp and timing for a microwave, i have a traditional oven)
 
11) The wait will be worth it... allow it to cool and then cut it...GORGE ON!
 
Leme know how it turns out... :)
