Check the center away from the chocolate chips: melted chocolate can smear a skewer even when no raw batter remains. Banana and plum compote keep the middle damp, so a browned top alone is not a reliable test. Let the baked loaf cool completely before slicing; the crumb firms as it cools.

Ripe bananas and plum compote keep this loaf moist, while skyr, lupin flour and defatted almond flour give it a firmer crumb and extra fiber and protein. Dark chocolate chips add small pockets of bitterness.
Ingredients
Preparation Steps
Prepare the pan
Heat the oven to 180°C (175°C fan). Line a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan.
Mix the wet ingredients
Mash the bananas in a large bowl. Whisk in the plum compote, chicken eggs and plain skyr until the mixture is thick and mostly even.
Make the batter
Stir together the lupin flour, defatted almond flour, whole wheat flour and baking powder. Fold them into the banana mixture, then fold in the dark chocolate chips. The batter should be thick but spreadable, with no dry flour visible; stop mixing at that point.
Bake
Spread the batter in the pan and bake for 35–50 minutes, allowing longer if needed. The top should be set and a skewer inserted into the center should come out without wet batter; the center should reach 93–96°C.
Cool and slice
Let the cake cool in its pan for 10–15 minutes, then lift it out and cool completely before cutting the loaf into slices.
Recipe insights
How can you tell when the banana cake is baked?
Can you use soy yogurt instead of skyr?
Yes. Replace the 250 g of plain skyr with 250 g of thick, unsweetened soy yogurt. A thinner yogurt can loosen the batter, and protein content varies by product. The three eggs remain, so this substitution does not make the cake vegan.
What should you know before baking with lupin flour?
Check for peanut allergies before serving cake made with lupin flour. Lupin is a legume and can cause reactions in some people with peanut allergies. The flour is mixed throughout the loaf, so it cannot be removed from a finished slice.
The lupin gives a beautiful yellow color in your dished, bring fiber and protein and is a fricking pulse so it fits eat-lancet perfectly !
Can you freeze breakfast cake slices?
Freeze individual slices so you can take out only what you need. For shorter storage, keep the loaf covered in the refrigerator for up to three days.
