Have you ever bought a whole cluster of bananas with the best of intentions, only to watch them grow soft and brown over the subsequent days (or weeks)? We’re all guilty of this banana negligence, but the good news is that even overripe bananas can be used in delicious recipes, the most delectable of which is banana cake with cream cheese frosting.
Terri, the blogger behind the food blog Great Grub, Delicious Treats offers up this recipe for a classic banana cake with a rich, sweet cream cheese frosting. A bit similar to banana bread, banana cake calls for ripe bananas, flour, eggs, butter, sugar, baking soda, salt, vanilla extract and a little “secret ingredient”: sour cream. Terri writes that she often uses sour cream in baked goods because it can add moisture without changing the flavor of the end product. Another option is to use plain Greek yogurt instead of sour cream.
This recipe for banana cake with cream cheese frosting calls for four ripe bananas, so you can really feel great about using up that produce you’ve been ignoring! The rest of the recipe requires the usual steps of mixing together wet ingredients and then dry ingredients in a particular sequence. Bake in 8-inch round tins until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
While waiting for the cakes to bake, whip up the cream cheese frosting, which calls for cream cheese, powdered sugar, butter and vanilla extract. Simple and classic, this sweet spread will go over and in between the two round layers of banana cake.
