Ariel Winter Instagram – It was not my day for cracking eggs apparently… but this cake turned out SO GOOD. If you like bananas you have to give it a try!! Recipe inspired by @southernlivingmag 😍
Banana Caramel Layer Cake
Cake:
2c flour
1tsp baking powder
1tsp baking soda
1/2tsp salt
1/2c butter
1.5c sugar
1 egg and 1 egg yolk
Ripe bananas
3/4c buttermilk
1tsp vanilla
Heat oven to 350 and line well greased 8 or 9in layer pans with parchment. I like to do both!
Sift dry ingredients together and set aside. Cream butter and sugar in a bowl until fluffy. Add eggs and beat well. Add banana. Gradually mix in flour mixture & buttermilk, making sure to beat after every addition. Add vanilla and combine. Pour into layer pans and bake for 25-28 mins or until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool before frosting.
Icing:
1/3c butter
1c brown sugar
1/4c milk
2c powdered sugar
1tsp vanilla
1tsp milk
Melt butter, brown sugar, and milk in a saucepan over very low heat. Stir and bring to boil for 1 minute. Don’t cook too long, or icing will get hard and grainy. Cool slightly. Pour into a bowl and mix in powdered sugar and vanilla. Beat until smooth and creamy either with a whisk or an electric mixer. If too thick, add milk a little at a time until spreadable. While icing is still warm, frost the cake.
Assemble however you want!!! I put a thin layer of icing on the first layer and added some thin sliced bananas before adding the second layer. Be careful not to add too much to the middle or it will slide out while you try to do the icing!!!! Enjoy!!!!
