    Recipe Introduction

    Look for Fresh Banana Layer Cake Frosting under Frosting.

    List of Ingredients

    3 cups all-purpose flour
    1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
    3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) butter, at room temperature
    2 1/4 cups granulated sugar
    3 eggs, well beaten
    5 ripe bananas, mashed
    1/4 cup buttermilk
    1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

    Frosting and Filling under Frostings

    Recipe

    Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Grease and flour three 9-inch cake pans. Sift together flour and baking soda, and set aside.
    Put butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl and cream together until smooth. Slowly pour in the eggs, mixing well between each addition. Stir in the mashed bananas. Add dry ingredients and buttermilk alternately, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Stir in vanilla extract and pecans. Divide batter among prepared pans and bake for 25 minutes, or until the tops all brown and the edges pull away from the pans, or a wooden pick inserted in the middle of a cake comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 to 10 minutes, then turn out onto racks to cool completely.
