Cream butter and sugar for approximately 10-12 minutes.

3

Sift plain flour together with baking powder in a large mixing bowl. Add new hemisphere™ Hemp Protein and set aside. Beat in eggs one at a time to the creamed butter and sugar, adding a little sifted flour to prevent the eggs from curdling. Combine mashed bananas and vanilla essence.

5

Spoon the mixture into prepared cake tin and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 40 minutes or until a cake skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
