Description
A delightful Banana Walnut Cream Cake combining the natural sweetness of ripe bananas with crunchy walnuts, topped with luscious whipped cream.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup walnuts, chopped
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
- Cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, stirring in the vanilla and mashed bananas.
- Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in another bowl. Gradually add this dry mixture to the banana mixture, stirring until just blended. Fold in the chopped walnuts.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan.
