This was a good simple recipe. I didn't do the upside-down part, even though that seems to be the star of the cake. My bananas were frozen, so when it defrosted, it was all mushy. So I ended up mixing it into the cake, and also mixing in walnuts (which was what I had on hand) into the cake. I also substituted 1/2 cup of Whole Wheat Flour. Cake still turned out really moist. So my version turned out more like a Banana Nut Cake. I liked the fact that it had yogurt in it.

OMG!!!!this was my first time baking banana upside-down cake and it was delicious, everybody was commending my baking skills and asking for the recipe, they think I'm a pro(I fool them,haha) Anyways, I followed the recipe exactly and the directions, and it was very easy to make, with ingredients that I always have on hand, and the results are just this wonderful, moist, banana rich cake, I made it 2 times in a week, UPON REQUEST!!!! love it, love it! deserves 10 stars! thank u! oh, and don't worry the bananas hold up pretty good, the taste is totally different if you mix the bananas with the flour mix than following the recipe and having the bananas on top, delicious.

DELICIOUS!! Do not hesitate to try this recipe, you will love it! I baked this for our Sunday Church breakfast and it was gone faster than you can say AMEN! I did not make any substitutions to the ingredients, measured all proportions and actually used some VERY RIPE bananas I had (I put them in the freezer, this makes them easier to cut up in slices and to toss around in the lemon juice; frozen bananas are also Perfect for smoothies in a flash) I also added a wee bit of dark rum to the caramelized brown sugar, gave it a nice flavor and spice. Make sure you only use 1,2 tbsps. It's enough. HAPPY BAKING!!

This was a great recipe, even though I didn't follow the directions, and I hate it when people don't follow the directions and they make bad comments about a recipe. I just knew we wouldn't eat this cake up in one day and wasn't sure how the bananas would hold up so I opted to just mix them right into the batter and it came out great, family loved it, Thanks

This makes a good, moist cake with the right hint of lemon to offset the sweetness. An important hint however - place a cookie tray underneath the springform pan when baking! Maybe my cake pan needs replacing, but it started leaking through after just 5 minutes in the oven. Also, if you have an efficient oven, you may want to check at 30 minutes...this bakes quickly and would not be as good if you overbake.
