This banana bread cake recipe is a family favorite. It is great for using overripe bananas. I usually double the recipe and make 2 loaves. You can also add walnuts if you wish.

Ingredients

  • 3 very ripe bananas

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup white sugar

  • ¼ cup butter, softened

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • ½ teaspoon baking powder

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

  2. Mash bananas in a large bowl. Add flour, sugar, butter, egg, vanilla, baking soda, and baking powder; mix until well combined. Pour into the prepared loaf pan.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of loaf comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes.
