Time 55m

Yield 1 cake, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped pecans
6 bananas, sliced
1 (18 1/4 ounce) package banana cake mix or 1 (18 1/4 ounce) package yellow cake mix

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350*. Grease and flour 2 (8") round cake pans or a 9x13" casserole. Combine butter and brown sugar, divide and spread evenly between the 2 pans or spread it all in 9x13 pan. Sprinkle pecans evenly over brown sugar mixture. Arrange banana slices evenly over pecans. Prepare cake mix according to package instructions. Divide batter into the 2 pans (or pour evenly over pecans in 9x13). Bake 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Turn cake(s) upside down on a platter or plate, gently tap bottom and carefully remove pans, replacing caramel mixture that sticks to pan. A few pear slices can be added to bananas for extra flavor.

This is the best banana upside down cake I've ever had. The bananas were perfectly caramelized and the cake was moist and fluffy.

I love that this recipe uses brown sugar instead of white sugar. It gives the cake a richer flavor.

This cake was a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more butter or oil next time.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved it. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
