Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cake will be.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the toothpick comes out with batter or crumbs attached, the cake needs to bake longer.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also store the cake in the freezer for up to 2 months.
