Tips:
- To ensure a moist cake, use ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful the cake will be.
- Mash the bananas thoroughly before adding them to the batter. This will help to evenly distribute the banana flavor throughout the cake.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense cake.
- Bake the cake at the correct temperature and for the correct amount of time. An underbaked cake will be gooey in the center, while an overbaked cake will be dry and crumbly.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
- If you are using a cream cheese frosting, be sure to bring the cream cheese to room temperature before using it. This will help to make the frosting smooth and creamy.
