2 Cups Flour
2 TSP. Baking Soda
1 TSP Salt
1 & 1/2 Cups Sugar
1/2 Cup Dark Brown Sugar ( use light brown sugar if you prefer a lighter in color cake)
4 Eggs
1 & 1/2 Cups Vegetable Oil
4 Very Ripe Bananas
1 TSP Vanilla
ADD INS FOR VARIATY :
1 Cup Chopped Nuts
or
1 Cup Chocolate Chips
or
1 Cup Peanut Butter Chips or mix 1/2 choc. chips & 1/2 peanut butter chips
or
1 Cup Coconut
or 1 Cup Raisins
Stir all dry ingredients together. Beat in oil. Now beat in eggs 1 at a time. Now beat in bananas one at a time. Using very ripe bananas so you do not need to chop or puree first just throw them in & beat. Add vanilla & beat. Pour batter into a well greased & floured cake pan. I used a tube pan but 9x13 pan or cake rounds would be fine! Bake at 325 1 hour for tube pan testing to make sure cake is baked completely! 9x13 pan check at 35 minutes & rounds at 30 minutes! Once baked let cool in pan for 10 minutes. For tube pan run a knife down the sides to loosen cake. Let cool before frosting!
7 MINUTE FROSTING:
1 Cup Sugar
1/3 Cup Water
1/4 TSP Cream of Tartar
Dash of Salt
Bring to a hard boil stirring to melt sugar. Once you have a rolling boil one that you can not stop by stirring, slowly beat this mixture into 2 unbeaten egg whites. beat for 7 minutes then beat in 1 tsp. vanilla! MY FAVORITE FROSTING! YUMMY!
FOR BANANA CAKE you might just want to frost with a CHOCOLATE FROSTING, a PEANUT BUTTER FROSTING, or CREAM CHEESE FROSTING depending on your add ins you chose. NO MATTER WHICH YOU CHOOSE YOU WILL HAVE GREAT CAKE! All of the frosting mentioned you can find right here at Judys Foodies!
