A Simple Banana Cake Recipe
Here's a basic banana cake recipe to get you started:
Ingredients:
* 3 ripe bananas, mashed
* 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
* 1 cup granulated sugar
* 2 large eggs
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
* 1 teaspoon baking soda
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions:
* Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
* Combine wet ingredients: In a large bowl, beat together the mashed bananas, softened butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
* Add dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
* Bake: Pour the batter into a greased and floured 9x5 inch loaf pan. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
* Cool: Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Optional: For a sweeter cake, you can increase the sugar to 1 1/4 cups. You can also add chopped nuts or chocolate chips to the batter for extra flavor.
