BANANA SNACK CAKE
Adapted slightly from Cafe Zupas
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups white sugar
2 eggs
1 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup mashed ripe banana
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 x 13 inch pan.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs until combined, then add the sour cream and vanilla and beat until combined.
3. In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Beat flour mixture into the wet batter until just combined. Stir in the mashed banana with a spatula. Spread batter evenly into prepared pan.
4. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Allow bars to cool completely before frosting.
This looks really good... I'm glad you shared it :) I've missed you on Twitter by the way!
ReplyDeleteHi Hannah! Did you make the cream cheese frosting yourself? Just a basic recipe? Thanks! These look delicious!
ReplyDeleteI did make a quick cream cheese frosting from scratch. I just beat 8 ounces softened cream cheese, 1/2 cup softened butter, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, and one pound powdered sugar together until fluffy. Enjoy!
