Instructions

1. Put the banana pieces, butter and sugar in a frying pan and cook for 5 to 10 minutes, until most of the moisture has evaporated and the bananas are so soft they fall apart when stirred.
2. Take off the heat, transfer to a bowl and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
3. Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F) fan.
4. Once chilled, beat in the eggs, vanilla and food coloring until well combined. The mixture must be cool so the chocolate does not melt.
5. In another bowl, mix the self-rising flour, baking soda and salt. Add the banana mixture and fold with a fork until just combined and coming together, without overmixing.
6. Stir in the walnuts and chocolate with a spatula just until distributed.
7. Pour the batter into a greased, flour-dusted 10 x 30 cm cake pan. Sprinkle granulated sugar over the top.
8. Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until a knife inserted in the centre comes out clean.
9. Cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes, then turn out and let cool completely. Dust with caster sugar and/or cocoa powder if you like.
