The Fluffiest Banana Cake Recipe By Tasty Food

THE BEST BANANA CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan (see Cook's Note) with aluminum foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang on the two longer sides. Lightly spray the foil with nonstick cooking spray.
• For the cake, mash the bananas in a large bowl with a fork or potato masher until very smooth. Whisk in the dark brown sugar, melted butter, sour cream, eggs and vanilla until smooth and combined. In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt.
• Fold the dry ingredients into the banana mixture in thirds until just combined. Pour into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top. Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Leave the cake in the pan to cool slightly, about 30 minutes. Use the foil overhang to remove the cake from the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Meanwhile, beat the butter, cream cheese and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Reduce to low speed, then add the powdered sugar a cup at a time until smooth. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat until fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Beat in the vanilla extract.
• Transfer 1/2 cup of the frosting to a small bowl and stir in the dulce de leche until smooth. Cover both frostings with plastic wrap and keep at room temperature until ready to assemble the cake.
• For the candied banana chips, warm the maple syrup in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat until it just starts bubbling. Add the banana chips and cook, tossing and stirring frequently with a rubber spatula, until the chips have absorbed almost all the maple syrup and are browned in spots, 3 to 4 minutes. Immediately transfer the banana chips to a baking sheet, spread in an even layer and cool completely. Once cool, roughly chop.
• Transfer the cake to a serving platter. Spread about 3/4 cup plain cream cheese frosting all over the top of the cake.
• Dollop the dulce de leche frosting and remaining plain frosting on top, then use a small offset spatula to swirl both frostings together in a swooping design, making sure the frosting goes all the way to the edges of the cake. Top with the chopped candied banana chips.

FLUFFY BANANA CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275°. Grease and flour 9x13 pan.
• Make "buttermilk". It's easiest to make all the buttermilk at once, so 1 3/4 c milk + 1/2 T lemon juice (this is additional juice, not what's in ingredients above). Let set during next steps.
• Cake: In a small bowl, mix mashed bananas with lemon juice, set aside.
• In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla. Beat in the flour mixture alternating with "buttermilk". Stir in banana mixture. Pour batter into prepared pan.
• Bake for 1 hour or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Move from oven directly to freezer for 30 minutes (I put a dish towel under the pan). This makes the cake very moist. This is optional. It's still good without doing this.
• Frosting: In a large bowl, cream butter and cream cheese until smooth, add buttermilk and vanilla. Gradually add powdered sugar while beating on low until combined, then on high until frosting is smooth. Spread on cooled cake.
• Optional, garnish with chopped pecans or walnuts.

• Bake cake for 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from pans, and cool on wire racks. Fill and frost the cake with whipped cream.
