Ingredients

Servings

• 200 gram Butter
• 200 gram Sugar
• 4 unit Eggs
• 2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 200 gram All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Milk
• 4 unit Ripe bananas
• 100 gram Brown sugar
• 50 gram Butter
• 2 tablespoon Rum
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a cake pan.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk.
4. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
5. While the cake is baking, prepare the bananas foster sauce. In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar, rum, and cinnamon. Cook until the sugar has dissolved and the sauce has thickened slightly, about 5 minutes.
6. Slice the ripe bananas and add them to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the bananas are softened.
7. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Serve the butter cake with the bananas foster sauce drizzled on top. Enjoy!
