Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 1/2 c flour
3/4 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp cloves
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 1/4 tsp baking powder
1 1/4 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp salt
4-5 mashed ripe bananas
1 c sugar
2/3 c sour milk (you can make sour milk by adding a tbs of vinegar or leman juice to milk and letting stand for a few minutes)
2 eggs
1/4 c oil (i have made it without oil and it is just as good)

Steps:

  • 1. Spray a 9x13 pan with oil (I prefer glass). I have also sprinkled the pan with sugar to create a crust for the bread before if you want. Preheat oven to 350.
  • 2. Stir together dry ingredients and set aside. Cream oil and sugar in a mixer. Add eggs until combined. Stir in mashed bananas until combined.
  • 3. Alternate dry ingredients and milk into the banana mixture until combined.
  • 4. Pour into the prepared 9x13 pan. Bake for approx. 30 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.

Tips:

  • Make sure your bananas are ripe for the best flavor and texture. Overripe bananas will even result in a better cake.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help incorporate air into the cake, making it light and airy.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help prevent the cake from curdling.
  • Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together before adding them to the wet ingredients. This will help ensure that the cake is light and fluffy.
  • Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients gradually, mixing until just combined. Overmixing will result in a tough cake.
  • Pour the batter into a greased and floured 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

This spiced banana cake is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a tender crumb and a hint of spice. The frosting is rich and creamy, and it perfectly complements the cake. Whether you are serving it for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, this spiced banana cake is sure to be a hit.
