Ingredients

Servings

• 1.5 cup Bananas
• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Buttermilk
• 1 cup Chopped walnuts
• 1 package Cream cheese
• 2 cup Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 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, combine the mashed bananas with the baking soda. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
4. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk. Stir in the banana mixture and chopped walnuts.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack.
6. In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and heavy cream until smooth and creamy. Spread the cream cheese frosting over the cooled cake. Serve and enjoy!
