Baking experiment

It's been a long time since I posted something (I've been really busy with a new job). We receive a blender for Christmas, so the other day I decided to try out the blender not for smoothies but to make a cake mix! Feeling lazy and not really wanting to follow a recipe I made up the following:

To a blender the following ingredients were added and blended together:

1 banana (not really ripe)
5 tbsp of flower
5 tbsp of sugar
~ 50 g of room temperature butter
some milk (may a cup)
1 pack of instant baking yeast

After mixing all the ingredients the batter was poured into a cupcake mould and a madeleine mould and it was baked for approximately 20 minutes at 200 oC.

It was an interesting experiment. The final result was actually quite good. Next time I am going to use a banana that is a bit more ripe and add some vanilla.
