Coffee Cake with Bananas and Pecans

Ingredients 0/13

Step 1

Gently heat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and greasing a 9-inch square baking dish, then lightly flour it so the cake doesn’t stick. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and superfine sugar until the mixture is smooth and fluffy. Crack in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition so everything blends nicely. In a separate small bowl, mix the baking soda into the sour cream, then stir this into the butter mixture until it’s all combined.

Step 2

Fold in the mashed bananas, followed by the cake flour and baking powder, mixing until smooth. Add the vanilla extract and give it one last stir. Pour the batter into your prepared dish. In another bowl, toss together the pecans, brown sugar, and cinnamon, then sprinkle this topping evenly over the batter.

Step 3

Pop the pan into the oven and bake for about 45 minutes, or until a toothpick you insert in the center comes out clean. Once done, let it cool a bit before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
