Method
Sieve together Wheat flour,Maida flour, Baking Soda and Baking Powder. Puree the Bananas. Stir Butter and Sugar together, add the Banana Puree. Slowly, Stir the flour mixture into this. Mix well, Add Chocolate Chips and Cinnamon Powder and Mix well.
Grease a Loaf Pan and Pour the Mix into the Pan and Bake @ 180C for an hour or till the cake passes the tooth-pick test. After pouring half the batter into the pan, i added a generous spoon of Chopped Almonds and covered again with the rest of the batter and sprinkled some more on the top.  The taste was awesome, I would love to bake it again, but next time i would like to reduce the sugar a little.

I made this simple and easy moong dhal for chapathi. I sometimes make the whole moong curry with spiced up coconut, but have kept this one simple to be prepared quick and healthy and since I am also sending to the Any one can cook event. The recipe is not much complex nor is something special and can be prepared in less than 20 mins.





Ingredients:
Whole Moong Bean - 1 cup
Onion - chopped 1
