Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 cup cake flour (not self-rising), plus more for pan
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Ground cloves
  • 2 very ripe bananas, 1 mashed (1/2 cup), 1 very finely chopped (1/2 cup)
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 ounces (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened, plus more for pan
  • 1/2 cup dark-brown sugar
  • 1 large egg

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-inch round cake pan. Line with parchment cut to fit, and butter and flour parchment. Sift flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and a pinch of cloves into a medium bowl. Whisk mashed banana, buttermilk, and vanilla in a small bowl.

Beat butter and sugar with a mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add egg, and beat until well combined. Reduce speed to low, and add flour mixture in 2 additions, alternating with banana mixture. Add chopped banana, and beat until well combined. Pour batter into pan, and use a spatula to spread into an even layer.

Bake until golden brown and a tester inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Let cake cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Run a knife around edge of pan, and invert pan onto rack. Remove parchment, and flip cake so top side faces up. Let cool completely on wire rack.

                I thought this was pretty good, you can make a 3 banana recipe if you make a "combine" with this recipe, as they are essentially the same: http://www.marthastewart.com/314362/banana-cupcakes-with-caramel-buttercream
                
                I put a few chocolate chips in the batter, and frosted with chocolate frosting...so good!
