Ingredients

Servings

• 1.5 cup Ripe bananas
• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Baking soda
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• ¹⁄₂ cup Buttermilk
• 8 cup Cream cheese
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• ¹⁄₂ cup Heavy cream

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
2. In a medium bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
4. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the mashed bananas and vanilla extract.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, alternating with buttermilk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. In a mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and heavy cream until smooth and creamy.
9. Once the cake has cooled, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top and sides of the cake.
10. Serve and enjoy!
