Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
-
In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the granulated sugar, softened unsalted butter, and eggs. Mix well.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, mixing until just combined.
-
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.
-
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
-
Once the cake has cooled, spread the cream cheese frosting over the top. Sprinkle with chopped walnuts.
-
Allow the cake to rest for at least 30 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
