Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
-
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
-
In a separate large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy using a hand mixer or stand mixer.
-
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the mashed bananas and vanilla extract until well combined.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just incorporated. Be careful not to overmix.
-
Fold in the sour cream gently, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the batter.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Once cooled, garnish the top of the cake with a light dusting of powdered sugar, sliced bananas, or a drizzle of honey for an elegant finishing touch.
