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.

Excellent recipe. I used the sour cream instead of buttermilk. So moist!! I also used the cream cheese frosting. The firemen I made it for raved about how moist it was 5 days later.

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...

Its been 8 long years since I last baked, and yesterday night, i finally baked my 1st banana cake using Kevin's recipe. Overall the cake is moist, but the sides was a tad too dry. The recipe called for 30 mins, which is way too short. I tested for doneness at 30mins, too wet, 45mins, still wet, and waited an additional 10 mins, hence the sides ended up a tad too dry. I will definitely try this recipe again, maybe this time, in a 9"X13" pan which might help with a more even baking, for 45 mins. My husband thanked me for the cake, and proceeded to ask me to bake him a cake for his coming birthday!

I made this cake in a 9x13 pan it kinda droped in the middle as it cooled. I think the next time I make this I'll bake at 325 for 40 mins to avoid the drooping. I didn't have butter milk or sour cream. So I used skim milk and a tsp of lime juice since thats all I had. Worked great!! This cake is very moist and tasty. I topped it with cream cheese frosting. I thought the frosting was too much but my family loved the sweetness.

This is a great cake, Kevin. Thank you. Normally I don't care for "banana" things because they taste like the dead bananas peope usually use for these reciies. But by using fresh *yellow* skinned bananas this cake has a wonderfully rich and satisfying fresh banana taste. It also freezes well, so I bake it as a flat sheet cake, split it up into sections, and freeze it. Perfect for a household with only two people. Then there is always "fresh" cake when company comes.

This cake adapts wonderfully well for those with egg/nut allergies by eliminating the nuts and using Ener-G egg replacer/water. I've been searching for months for a cake recipe for my little one's 1st birthday that contains no eggs/nuts and still tastes great -this is the one!! I frosted with a basic cream cheese frosting, the whole family loves it! We'll make this often. Thanks for posting!!

Wonderful banana cake recipe! This one will be my go to from now on. I subbed sour cream for the buttermilk and it rose nicely with the 1 tbsp of baking soda. Nice and moist, delicious with a lemon cream cheese frosting (8oz cream cheese, 1/4 cup softened butter, 1 cup confectioner's sugar, 1 tsp lemon extract). Yum!

YUM YUM YUM. I made this cake last night. It was wonderful. I added one teaspoon of vanilla, and only used 1/2 cup of the white sugar. Everything else I kept the same. I used cream cheese frosting,and have been thinking about that cake all day. Definately make this cake. You will love it.

This was fantastic!!! I almost followed the recipe exactly... but... I just have a hard time following ANY recipe exactly. :) I added 1 tsp of vanilla and used 2/3 cup of sour cream instead of buttermilk. I omitted the nuts because Mr. U doesn't like them. I frosted this with cream cheese icing when I was finished. I made this because we had family in town visiting. We all loved this moist and delicious cake! His, Mrs. U

we had so many bananas turning black! never made a banana cake before so i decided to try this one. it seemed just slightly more delicate than a regular banana bread. i didn't have any unsalted butter so i used regular salted butter but forgot to omit salt - it was fine; used skim milk w/a quarter teaspoon of vinegar for buttermilk; used immersion blender to puree bananas; added 1 tsp. vanilla; omitted nuts because i don't like them and baked in bundt pan greased and sprinkled with a cinnamon sugar mixture (a great idea that i found right here on allrecipes!) this is a great cake/bread! so moist and delicious! maybe next time i'll try frosting it before it gets gobbled up! thank you kevin ryan for sharing this recipe!**UPDATE: made this recipe again - this time with salted butter (omitted salt), 3/4 c milk chocolate chips, walnuts, 1 t vanilla, 1 t banana extract (from thai market) and sour cream. baked in muffin tins lined w/paper liners and sprinkled a cinnamon sugar mixture liberally on tops before baking. very good but i think the buttermilk is better. **

I made this in a 9 X 13; Added 1 tsp vanilla, sour cream in place of buttermilk. Topped with cream cheese pudding mix: Beat 4 oz of cream cheese until fluffy. Add 1/4 cup powder sugar, 2.5 oz instant vanilla pudding, 5/8 cup milk, mix. Then fold in 6 oz cool whip. This frosting goes with any cake.

Very tasty and moist. It does taste like banana bread, however, not like "cake" for those looking for a cake. I followed the recipe as written and added 1tsp vanilla as suggested by others.

I just took my first bite and this was very moist and melts in your mouth (in a good way)! I followed everything except I didn't use as much white sugar because I didn't want to risk having a too-sweet banana cake. The next time I make this I plan on putting twice as many walnuts!
