Banana Bundt cake

The first time we made this at home, I tried to bake it in a slightly too small Bundt shape, and it grew and grew, until the top reached the top heating element. It was in my mum's new oven...ups.
This tastes like real bananas, and is drier and more dense than the boxed cake mixes baked in a Bundt shape.

Ingredients
5 eggs
400g flour
100mL milk
1 tbsp baking powder
300g mashed banana
120g (1 stick) butter
240g sugar
pinch of salt

Preparation
Blend the butter and sugar until smooth. Mix in the egg yolks one by one.

Mix in the milk followed by the mashed bananas.

Sift the flour with the baking powder and salt, then mix into the liquid ingredients.

Finally, carefully fold in the egg whites, beaten till they form hard peaks.

Bake in a greased, floured Bundt shape (12cup version), on 300F, until it passes the toothpick test. This may take 1-2 hours.

Dust with icing sugar, or serve coated with white chocolate ganache.
