Step by step: Moist banana cake recipe
Preheat the oven to 325°F / 165°C/ Gas Mark 3. Grease and flour a 9 x 4 loaf pan or 2 x 6-inch round baking pans.
Combine dry ingredients – baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon powder, grated nutmeg, ground ginger, and flour.Pro tip – Use a sifter or whisk to make sure it is well combined. Mash banana with a fork and set aside. In the bowl of the stand-mixer using the whisk attachment, whip eggs with sugar until light and foamy. Gradually add the oil followed by the sour cream and vanilla extract.
Next, add the mashed banana followed by the flour mixture. Pour into the greased and lined loaf pan. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes or until the skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes then invert on a cooling rack. Serve warm, room temperature or cold.
