Start by grabbing a cappuccino mug with a 7 fl.oz. (200ml) capacity and add a ripe banana, mashing it with a fork until it is nice and smooth. Then, pour in some milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract, and stir everything together.
Next, it’s time to add the dry ingredients to the mix. Add flour, raw sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt, stirring the mixture just enough to combine everything. Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can cause the cake to become tough and dry.

Once the cake is ready, feel free to dust the top with some cinnamon sugar, or add a dollop of whipped cream or cream cheese for a little extra indulgence.
