Banana Cake Recipe

I don't really care for banana but I'd die for a good moist banana cake, not bread or loaf, but cake. I tried several recipes but did not really find anything moist and soft enough to my liking until I stumbled upon a recipe posted by Rhonda *J* from Canada on Food.com. She was not lying when she titled her post Best Ever Banana Cake. Her recipe includes cream cheese frosting but I did not try making one coz I'm not good with frostings plus the cake itself is already super moist, I don't think it will need any more frosting.

Please visit her page and look for more recipes that you want to try and don't forget to share it with us.

This my modified recipe. I didn't change anything major, so pretty much it is the same recipe.

My Favorite Banana Cake Recipe
Ingredients:
4 medium-sized bananas, mashed (the riper, the better)
2 teaspoons lemon juice
3 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup butter, softened
2 1/8 cups sugar
3 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 1/2 cups buttermilk

Directions:
1 Preheat oven to 275°F.
2 Grease and flour a 9 x 13 pan.
3 In a small bowl, mix mashed banana with the lemon juice; set aside.
4 In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.
5 In a large bowl, cream 3/4 cup butter and 2 1/8 cups sugar until light and fluffy.
6 Beat in eggs, one at a time, then stir in 2 tsp vanilla.
7 Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the buttermilk.
8 Stir in banana mixture.
9 Pour batter into prepared pan and bake in preheated oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes (original recipe is only for an hour) or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
10 Remove from oven and place directly into the freezer for 45 minutes. This will make the cake very moist.

Enjoy!!! ;)

Welcome to my Kusina

Kusina - means kitchen in Filipino.

Welcome to my new blog! My mom used to tell me that when I get married, my husband will send me back to my parents coz I do not know how to cook at all. Not even boiling water. But when I got married and moved thousands miles away from the home (country), I had no choice but to learn to cook the food that I grew up with and some that I learned to like. Most of the food I cooked are from the recipes I find online. And I created this blog so that I do not only share the pictures (via Facebook or Instagram) but also to give credits to the people whom I stole the recipes from, and also to share with you the best recipes (in my own tasting) I found and will find. If you find anything you like, please do not hesitate to leave your comments/feedback as it will be helpful to our fellow recipe-seekers/food-lovers. Also, I'd appreciate if you share whatever modification you made on the recipe and as well as your own recipe. Happy cooking!!! xoxo, J.

I Will Be Glad To Hear From You
