Banana Walnut Cake Recipe

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

The banana walnut cake is ridiculously simple. It has only one layer, is very moist, and is full of flavor. It is topped with a rich cream cheese frosting.

INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x13 pan.Mix flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a medium bowl.

Step 1

Electric mixers on medium-high speed beat butter and sugars for 3 minutes until light and fluffy. First add vanilla, then eggs one by one.

Step 2

Mix half the dry ingredients, then the bananas, sour cream, and milk on low speed. Beat in remaining dry ingredients. Add walnuts gently. Do not overmix.

Step 3

Bake the batter for 35 minutes or until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely.

Step 4

Unfrosted cake can be frozen for 2 months if wrapped well. Before frosting, thaw at room temp.

Step 5

Mix cream cheese, butter, and vanilla in an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and creamy. Low-speed beat sugar until fluffy.

Step 6

Frost the cake after cooling. Chop walnuts for garnish. Refrigerate 30 minutes before slicing and serving for cleaner cuts. Keep 3 days in fridge. Serve room-temp.
