Ingredients

Scale

3 cups all-purpose flour (measured correctly)

2 tsp baking soda

1 tsp salt

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup granulated sugar

4 overripe bananas, mashed

2 large eggs

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup sour cream (or plain Greek yogurt)

3 tbsp unsalted butter, softened

3 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

Chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 12-cup bundt pan or use nonstick spray with flour.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk flour, salt, and baking soda.
  3. Mash bananas until mostly smooth.
  4. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars until fluffy.
  5. Mix in bananas and vanilla.
  6. Beat in eggs, one at a time.
  7. Stir in sour cream.
  8. Gradually add flour mixture, mixing until just combined.
  9. Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth the top.
  10. Bake 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  11. Let cake cool in pan for 20 minutes, then turn out onto a plate.
  12. Cool completely before frosting.
  13. For the glaze: Mix butter and cream cheese, then add powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt.
  14. Spread glaze over cooled cake. Top with nuts if desired.

Notes

  • If you’re out of sour cream, Greek yogurt works just as well.
  • Freeze your brown bananas in their peel. Let ’em thaw on the counter when ready to bake.
  • Want mini cakes? Use mini bundt pans and adjust bake time to 18-22 minutes.
  • Store covered in the fridge, but let it come to room temp before serving.
  • This cake actually gets better the next day. Trust me on that.
