This recipe came out so well and if I wasn't working from home while baking, I would have sat down and cried at how much it reminded me of my grandma's banana bread. I would make it again if only for the memories the aroma elicits. I did tweak it to make it gluten free and accommodate for more mashed bananas since I had more than a cup on hand. Below were my add ons:

All purpose gluten free flour from Trader Joes: 2 1/2 cups
Baking soda: 2 teaspoons
Cinnamon: 2 teaspoons
Mashed banana: 2 cups
Cane sugar: 1 cup
Light brown sugar: 1/2 cup

Only slight modifications to an already delicious recipe. Thanks for sharing!!

I made this cake. It was delicious, nice and moist, nice Banana taste. I’ve been trying to find a recipe like my mother in laws. When I told my daughter we had to take her somewhere. Not quite Grandmas. But she said pretty close. Thanks for sharing.

I still have hot cake, out of the oven, in my mouth. This is by far the best sour cream banana cake EVER. I have tried at least 6 other recipes...most were too heavy and some had fallen leaving a doughy layer in the middle. This is light, delicious and I highly recommend it. It is now in my permanent line up of winners.

In reply to Candace DeLong. Hi Candace! I am thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed this Banana Cake. We love it ourselves. As for making this in a bundt pan, the ratios would be slightly different, as a standard Bundt cake typically yields slightly more than a 9x13 pan. I can not give you accurate timing either unless I tested this myself. I would start by using this recipe and baking at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes in a well-greased bundt pan. Also, keep in mind it can be more difficult to ice.

OMG, this was so so delicious!! Moist , not crumbly and I just love cream cheese icing. I did divide the batter up into to two 8”x8” glass pans. One to take to someone’s house and one for home.
Can you put this in a bundt cake pan?

Could hardly stop eating this cake, it was so tasty and moist! I made the frosting as written except for part of the sugar I used some powdered coconut nectar and powdered erythritol (whizzed in a blender). It turned
out so light and delicious. I think having the ingredients at room temp. or slightly more helped them to cream together well and contributed to the lightness. Thanks for a great recipe!

In reply to Jennae. Hi Jennae! This cake can be halved and baked in an 8x8 cake pan for the same amount of time with great results.

Can I make this in a 9x9 pan instead, and if so, what would be the adjusted time/temp?

In reply to Cynde. What a happy accident! I haven't tried this as cupcakes, so not sure if it would work. It doesn't rise as much as classic cupcakes, so it may need a few adjustments to be perfect.

My family and I love, love, love this cake! I've given pieces to multiple others, who've all raved about it. I accidentally doubled the butter in the cake the first time and have ever since. I also added walnuts and chocolate chips. Would this recipe work as cupcakes?
