I tried making a cake that was simple and suited my tastes, with what I had in my kitchen!
My friends love receiving this as a gift.
It will be moist when cooled, and fluffy if you leave it a day, so it makes a good present. Slice it up and give as Valentine's Day gifts.

Mind you don't over-mix it once you've added the flour. Use a ripe banana. If it's not sweet enough, add some honey to the mashed banana.
Canola, vegetable and grapeseed oil are mild-tasting. It's fine to use olive oil, but the taste will be a little stronger. Recipe by Ringo19

Steps

1

Preparation: Slice half a banana into 7 slices and set aside for the topping. Mash the rest and add some lemon juice. Add honey too if you'd like.
2

Line the cake tin with parchment paper, and preheat the oven to 180℃. Roast or microwave the walnuts if you can.
3

Put the egg and sugar in a bowl and mix lightly with a hand mixer. Mix in the oil.
4

Add the milk, the mashed banana and crushed walnuts to the mixer in that order, and mix. Set aside some uncrushed walnuts for the topping.
5

Sift in the ingredients marked ○, and fold in using a whisk or a spatula. Note: Don't over-mix it once you've added the flour. The batter should be a little powdery.
6

Pour it into the cake tin, drop it gently a few times, and smooth out the surface. Top with the banana slices and walnuts which you set aside.
7

Bake for 35-40 minutes at 180℃. It's done when a skewer poked through the middle comes out clean. Remove it from the tin and let it cool. All done!

It's easier to slice when cooled.
