INSTRUCTIONS
Banana Cake
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8-inch square pan.
In a blender, combine bananas, milk, lemon juice, eggs, vanilla, olive oil, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, flour, and brown sugar.
Blend for 15 seconds. Scrape down the sides and blend for an additional 5 seconds.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 40-45 minutes. Test with a skewer; it should come out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and place the pan on a wire cooling rack. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer the cake to the wire rack to cool completely before frosting.
Cream Cheese Frosting
In a mixing bowl, add cream cheese. Sift powdered sugar over the cream cheese using a mesh strainer.
Add vanilla extract and mix until smooth and well combined.
Frost the completely cooled cake with the cream cheese frosting. You can pipe or dollop it on as desired.
NOTES
Make sure your bananas are very ripe for the best flavor.
Don’t over-blend the batter to keep the cake light and fluffy.
Cool the cake completely before applying the frosting to avoid melting.
For a different twist, add chopped nuts or chocolate chips to the batter before baking.
