Banana Cuca by Rodrigo Hilbert

Sweet cakes and pies

The new season of Tempero de Família has started, a cooking program where Rodrigo Hilbert reproduces some of his family’s recipes. I enjoyed the first season! He got confused at times, sat on the sink, licked his finger, but that was ok, I liked it, I found it very relaxed and the photography in the program is exquisite!

I drool over the rustic environments that serve as the setting for the program! But what I really wanted to say is that I tested one of his recipes, Banana Cuca, and it was delicious!

The cuca is basically a cake batter, a layer of banana and a crunchy crumb on top. Very simple to do. The original recipe can be found HERE.
It looks like this before going into the oven:

I cut the bananas into slices instead of slicing as the recipe indicated and added a spoonful of banana liqueur to the dough.

Some considerations:

  • The mass increases quite a bit.
  • If your banana is not quite ripe, I suggest adding 2 tablespoons more sugar to the dough, as it won’t be very sweet (but it depends on each person’s taste).
  • I used chemical cake yeast.
  • With whipped cream or cream ice cream it is delicious!
