Mom's Banana Cake


At the beginning of the week I bought a lot of bananas to bring to work as snacks but everyday I brought one, it ended up coming back home with me. Yesterday I noticed that I had many ripe bananas and would feel terrible if I had to throw them away. So I called my mom and asked her for her banana cake recipe ;) and mmm it turned out great!

Here is the recipe, it is so easy. (not fat free tho lol so beware of hidden cals in this delicious cake!)

4 bananas (3 mashed up and 1 banana sliced)
1 cups sugar
2 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
2 eggs
1/3 milk
3/4 oil (I used canola)
1tsp vanilla extract

2 bowls.

In one bowl mix flour/baking powder/baking soda

In bowl 2 blend mashed banana's/eggs/oil, and sugar.

Stir in flour mixture to wet mixture and add milk and vanilla, blend.

You can make 1 large cake or 2 smaller ones (sorry I am not sure of the sizes but 1 of the pans I used was 8x8 square and the other was a small rectangular one)

Pour mixture into pans and add the slices of banana pushing them into the mixture (optional; mom doesn't do this, this was my added touch ;)

cook 45 mins at 350F
