Ingredients

Instructions

1. Prepare the Chia Seed Mixture:
   Start by soaking the chia seeds in buttermilk for about 4-5 minutes. This step helps to activate the chia seeds, giving them a gelatinous texture that will add moisture to the cake.

2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients:
   While the chia seeds are soaking, chop the roasted peanuts into small pieces and set them aside. Mash the ripe bananas with a fork in a separate bowl.

3. Mix the Wet Ingredients:
   In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, brown sugar, and salt. Using an electric mixer, beat the mixture until it becomes smooth and creamy. Continue to mix while adding the buttermilk with soaked chia seeds.

4. Combine Dry Ingredients:
   Sift the all-purpose flour, rice flour, and baking powder together. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, incorporating them gradually to avoid lumps.

5. Add Peanuts and Final Mix:
   Stir in the chopped roasted peanuts and continue to mix until everything is well combined. For an extra smooth texture, beat the mixture for another minute.

6. Prepare the Bundt Pan:
   Grease a 22 cm diameter bundt pan (with a height of 10 cm) with butter. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

7. Bake the Cake:
   Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Place the pan on the middle rack and bake for approximately 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

8. Make the Chocolate Glaze:
   While the cake is baking, prepare the chocolate glaze. In a small saucepan, heat the water. Add the brown sugar and stir until it dissolves. Pour this syrup over the dark chocolate pieces, stirring until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.

9. Decorate the Cake:
   Once the cake is baked and cooled slightly, drizzle the warm chocolate glaze over the top. For a crunchy touch, sprinkle some chopped roasted peanuts on top for decoration.

10. Serve and Enjoy:
    Allow the glaze to set before slicing the cake into generous pieces. Your banana and peanut bundt cake is now ready to serve, perfect for sharing with family and friends!
