Dave'sWife BS: Cake in a Crockpot (slow cooker) (23) RE: BS: Cake in a Crockpot (slow cooker) 12 Nov 07


Here's the banana one. I have one cooking in the Crockpot as I type:

Crockpot Banana Cream Upside-Down Cake recipe

Source: Busy People's Slow Cooker Cookbook by Dawn Hall

3 egg whites
2 medium bananas, smashed to equal 1 cup
1/2 plus 2 cups water
1 (18.25 ounce) box yellow cake mix (do not
    make as directed on box)
1 (3 1/2 ounce) box banana cream, cook-and-serve
    pudding mix, dry (do not make as directed on box)

Heat a slow cooker on HIGH. Spray the cooker with nonfat cooking spray.

In a large bowl beat the egg whites with a mixer on high speed until soft peaks form, about 1-2 minutes.

In a separate bowl, put the bananas. With the mixer beat on high until the bananas are pureed. Put 1 cup of the pureed bananas in with the egg whites. (Discard any extra banana mixture.) Add the 1/2 cup water and the DRY CAKE MIX to the eggs and bananas. With the mixer beat together for about 1-2 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl now and then. The batter will be thick.

In the prepared slow cooker stir together the DRY PUDDING MIX and the remaining 2 cups of water. Stir until completely dissolved. Pour the prepared cake batter and the pudding ,ixture into the slow cooker. DO NOT STIR! Place a paper towel on top of the slow cooker. Place the lid of the cooker on top of the paper towel to cover. Cook on HIGH for 2 hours.

Place a large serving plate with an edge on it (so the sauce won't overflow off the plate) upside down on top of the slow cooker. Holding the slow cooker and plate firmly together, with both hands, carefully flip the cake upside down. It will be steamy hot so be VERY CAREFUL! The sauce will ooze down the sides of the cake.

NOTE - this is another one of those "sorts itself out" type of Crockpot Cake. i put the cake batter in FIRST and then poured the pudding mixture on top and I could see that it looked a lot like the Mudcake in that the intended sauce sort of penetrates the thicker cake mix when you pour it on top. it will probably migrate to the bottom just like the Mudcake. it smells amazing!
