Equipment

  • 9-inch round ramekins
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Electric mixer
  • Spatula
  • Toothpick

Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 6 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts
  • 2 cups vanilla custard for filling and drizzle
  • 2 sliced bananas for topping
  • 1/2 cup walnuts for topping

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch round ramekins.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, then add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Add the sour cream and vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture, then stir in the mashed bananas.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined, then fold in the chopped walnuts.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans and smooth the top. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
