I'm a foodie and I like experimental cooking.

The title is quite long, isn't it? Because I don't know how to call this recipe so I just combine all ingredients in it, lol.

Haven't I shared here recently that we moved to a new place? The place is good, but I dislike some aspects. One thing I don't like is the number of restaurants on the bottom floor. Why? Because the aroma of foods from those restaurants lingers in the air and travels up to our flat, and I can smell them, lol. They make me want to crave foods I am avoiding, especially those forbidden.

But there is one thing I like about this new house, the cozy kitchen.

It's quite spacious and brighter compared to the former one. I gave it a test one afternoon and cooked something yummy for my appetite using the available ingredients at home.

I had some bananas and sweet potatoes at home. I was craving cakes so I cooked one. This is just random cooking, but if you want to give it a try, just follow the simple steps below.

The ingredients are:

• Banana
• Sweet Potatoes
• Corn flour (because we have no other flour)
• Oats
• Cinnamon powder
• Butter
• Brown Sugar
• Baking Soda
  For toppings:
• Sunflower and Chia Seeds

The first thing I did was to peel and cut the sweet potatoes, then steam them until softened. Since I sliced it too thin, it only took me less than five minutes. The crushing of sweet potatoes and banana was next then combined with the rest of the ingredients. I gradually added water until I reached the desired texture like in the photo below.

Next is to pour the mixture into the steaming pan, but I used a baking pan here because I initially planned to bake it. But then I thought steaming would be faster and will give the cake a softer texture.

This kind of cake is perfect with nuts. However, I have none. I remembered I have some sunflower seeds. I added some on top along with chia seeds and some oats.

Lastly, steam the cake for 20 minutes. I like our new stove. It has a timer and I can just set it and wait until it's done.

After twenty minutes, tada!

I was impatient so I cut it even though it wasn't cool yet. It tasted good when eaten hot, anyway. It was my lunch, by the way, 😅.

Here's a new recipe. It is great when paired with a cup of coffee. This time, I tried black coffee and it didn't taste bad at all. And that's the view from our kitchen.

Give it a try if you want. I saved some for the next day because it was my holiday. It tasted even better, albeit a little hard. But if you want a softer one, just cool it down at room temperature. So this recipe is great when chilled in the fridge before eating. Go and try it. You'll like it!

Thanks for stopping by and happy cooking.
