This is a nice simple recipe, perfect for using up those bananas. Added some chocolate chips for fun, isn't going to last long in my household. Thanks for a keeper. ;)

I made this today and it turned out moist and wonderful. I made 24 muffins and one small loaf. I should have made less muffins. I wasn't sure how much they would rise, so I didn't fill them too much. I hate when people adjust other peoples' recipes that they have submitted, but I had to throw in some mini chocolate chips :)

I didn't think this was as strongly banana tasting as I had hoped. Perhaps I should have just made banana bread and frosted it. It was moist, and I will try it again sometime.

This recipe is FANTASTIC as banana bread. I replaced the buttermilk with sour cream, added a dash of cinnamon to the flour mix, and omitted the salt altogether. I baked for 45 minutes, and it came out perfect. It is so moist and sweet, you don't need any frosting, just server as is.

OH my WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW.. this cake is excellent!! perfect as it is, I only decreased the brown sugar to 1/2 cup because I wanted to frost it.. Unlike other cakes, this DID NOT stick to the pan. I greased it generously with butter. I used to think that to have a moist cake it has to stick to the pan but now I know im wrong, this cake isnt like banana bread at all. its much lighter and moist. I omitted the walnuts because I wanted a good texture for a layer cake. This is greaaaaaaaaaaaat!!! I will upload a picture later. ps. for the frosting, used a recipe from this site. 9 ounces semisweet chocolate cut into cubes, 1 cup heavy cream. Put the cream in a saucepan, let it boil 10 seconds, then pour over the chocolate and let sit 15 seconds. Whisk until well blended. Let it cool then refrigerate for 45 minutes. Beat until fluffy Forgot to say, dont forget to take of the strings from the bananas unless you want black worm looking things in your cake! oops! I forgot to take mine off

Super easy to make and very good. I ended up baking it in a 10x13" Pyrex dish which required an extra 15 minutes in the oven. Very moist and delicious. No need to change a thing!

Very Good! I did not have 4 bananas so put in the 3 I had and added a bit extra buttermilk for moisture. It tastes great. I had to cook a bit longer but maybe my oven is a little off. Also, we have tried it with adding peanut butter when we have had no nuts in the house, that was all good too.

Great recipe--I added 1/2 cup applesauce instead of butter and used 1 1/4 cup of whole wheat flour with 1 1/4 cup of all- purpose flour, added some craisins instead of the walnuts for those that have allergies, and it was absolutely divine.

Wonderful cake. But a bit too sweet for our taste. Next time i'll cut back on the brown sugar to 1/2 cup from 3/4 cups. But it's a keeper!

This was very good. My husband was picky and really liked this cake. I followed some of the previous reviews and added about 1 tsp of baking powder and made my own buttermilk by adding about 1 tbs of vinegar to the milk. Made this with cream cheese frosting which was also well received.

I had 5 small overripe bananas left over and found this recipe. It was a snap to put together. I didn't have any walnuts to add in or buttermilk so I used part plain yogurt and milk and folded in a cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and three quarters of a cup toasted coconut.I baked it in a 9 x 13 pan and it came out great.The chips and coconut added a whole new level to the taste. I dusted it with a bit of powdered sugar and used as a snack cake.

This cake is the BEST banana cake I've ever had. And I've been making banana bread/cake for a while now. It's up there with my Grandma's banana bread recipe. I used sour cream instead of buttermilk (didn't have any) and I used 1 c. of whole wheat flour. Next time I am going to slip in some ground flax seed! hehe LOVE this esp. warm out of the oven w/vanilla icecream on top.

I give this recipe 5 stars for simplicity and overall nice taste. This is the recipe to make with those overripe bananas that you never got around to eating. Plus, you probably have all the ingredients at home. I baked in 9x13 at 350 for 35 minutes (I like my top a bit brown) I had a piece this morning (have kept in refrigerator for almost a week now)and it still tastes fresh - tastes like banana snack cake/muffin.

I just made this cake today but i made it a layered cake with cream cheese frosting. Also added a cap of lemon extract to it and sprinkeled nuts on top of frosting. Came out really good. Made another batch for cupcakes with same topping but this time used vanilla extract. Kids loved it and its also a great recipe to use for teachin 11 yr old to bake.

This banana cake was oustanding! This is a very dense cake however. It does have more of a banana bread consistency but in a bundt pan with cream cheese frosting everyone loved it. Personally, I swore I could taste the baking soda though...
