Banana Cake
1 3/4 cup plus 2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup skim milk
3 Tbsp. vegetable oil
3 egg whites
1 Tbsp. vanilla extract
1/4 tsp. banana extract (optional)
2 1/4 cups mashed, very ripe bananas

Preheat oven to 350° F. Spray a 10 inch tube pan with nonstick cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine both types of flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Mix well. In another bowl, combine remaining ingredients except bananas. Beat with a fork or wire whisk until blended. Add bananas. Whisk again. Add to dry mixture, mixing until all ingredients are moistened. Spoon batter into prepared pan. Smooth the top slightly with the back of a spoon. Bake 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes, then remove cake to rack. Serve warm for best flavor.
