Mixing bowls
Electric mixer or whisk
Spatula
9x13-inch baking pan
Cooling rack
- 2 cups mashed ripe bananas
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and prepare a 9x13-inch pan.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Crack in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract and mashed bananas, and mix well.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; gradually add to the wet mixture, stirring gently.
Fold in the sour cream or Greek yogurt until the batter is smooth.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly; bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Let the cake cool completely before frosting.
To make the frosting, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth; then add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk, and mix until creamy.
Spread the frosting over the cooled cake and garnish with nuts, banana slices, or caramel sauce.
For the best flavor, use very ripe bananas with plenty of brown spots. Don’t forget to let the cake cool completely before frosting to avoid melting. Feel free to get creative with toppings; caramel sauce and nuts add an extra flair. Store the leftover cake properly, wrapped or in an airtight container, to keep it fresh. Enjoy your baking adventure!
