Banana Pudding Cake features moist banana cake layered with vanilla filling, bananas, and vanilla wafers. It&#x27;s all topped with vanilla pudding frosting!

Banana Pudding Cake

all-purpose flour

baking soda

salt

(about 3 cups mashed) very ripe bananas (mashed)

sugar

brown sugar (firmly packed)

vegetable oil

sour cream

vanilla pudding

cream cheese

heavy cream

unsalted butter (at room temperature)

(8-ounce) container frozen whipped topping (Thawed)

bananas (sliced)

vanilla wafers (lightly crushed)

vanilla wafers

Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line three 9-inch round cake pans with parchment paper and spray with nonstick Bakers Spray. 

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour (4 cups), baking soda (2 teaspoons), and salt (1 teaspoon) to combine. Set aside.

In a separate medium mixing bowl, using a handheld electric mixer, mix the banana (about 3 cups), sugar (1 1/2 cups), and brown sugar (1 cup) until combined.

Add oil (1 cup), eggs (4), sour cream (1 cup), and vanilla extract (1 tablespoon) and mix until combined and the mixture is smooth.

With the mixer on low, gradually&nbsp;add the flour mixture to the banana mixture and mix, just until flour disappears into the batter (do not overmix).

Pour batter evenly into prepared pans. Bake for 30- 38 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, turn out onto a cooling rack, and cool completely. 

Cake:

In a medium mixing bowl, using a handheld electric mixer, mix together the pudding mix (1 box) and cream cheese (8-ounce) until smooth. With the mixer set on low, gradually add the cream (1 1/2 cups) and beat until the mixture is very thick.

Pudding Layer:

In a medium mixing bowl, beat the butter (1 cup) until it&#39;s light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the pudding mix (1 box) and beat until combined.

With the mixer on low, gradually add half the powdered sugar. Beat until well combined and the mixture is smooth. Add more powdered sugar as needed to achieve desired spreadable consistency.

Fold in thawed frozen whipped topping (8-ounce) until evenly mixed.

Frosting:

Pipe a border of frosting around the edges of 2 of the layer cakes.&nbsp;

Top the cakes with a thin layer of sliced bananas within the border of frosting.&nbsp;

Divide the pudding filling in half, and pipe or spread 1/2 the pudding mixture within the frosting border, on the 2 layers.

Sprinkle with about 3/4 cup lightly crushed Vanilla Wafers. Gently press into filling.

Stack the 2 cakes on top of each other, then top with the third cake.

Spread a thin layer of the frosting over sides and top of the cake. Refrigerate&nbsp;until frosting has set a bit, about 20 minutes.&nbsp;

Press a border of whole Vanilla Wafers around the base of the bottom cake then sprinkle the top layer with lightly crushed Vanilla Wafers. Refrigerate cake for a minimum of 1 hour to firm and set. Serve cake.

Assembly:

I was a little hesitant about this cake because of the icing.  Frosting had gritty feel to it..So I added sone of the filling to icing and it came out perfect.  I got rave reviews and will be making it again.  This is a winner…Will this again and again.  I wanted to post a picture but I couldn’t figure out how to do it.

No problem. Just a couple questions. Will I be able to make the frosting and filling a couple days in advance?

This recipe was amazing. I'll be honest I used my own cake recipe but used your filling and frosting. And I love it. Thank you for sharing

I made the cake and my family really enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing your recipe.  Laondria Crawford

Thank you for the recipe I don't like box cake mix even though I can make it homemade is the best I made it they love it

Our Banana Pudding Cake is an incredibly moist three-layer dream cake with a cream cheese pudding filling, lots of bananas, and a luscious frosting.

BANANA PUDDING CAKE

If you’ve got overripe bananas sitting on your counter, my best ever moist banana cake recipe is the perfect way to use them! Soft, tender, and packed with banana flavor, this cake is a step up from your classic banana bread—and when it’s topped with a rich and tangy cream cheese frosting, it becomes next-level delicious!

The Best Banana Cake

cornstarch

tsp baking powder

tsp baking soda

tsps cinnamon

3½ large bananas (skin removed, make

unsalted butter (room temperature)

vegetable oil (I use canola)

white granulated sugar

eggs (room temperature)

vanilla essence/extract

Greek yoghurt (room temperature)

unsalted butter (room temp)

sugar (also known as icing/confectioners' sugar)

cream cheese (cold, firm type (see note 1))

vanilla extract/essence

lemon juice (must be fresh)

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) conventional (see note 2 if using a convection oven with a fan), and lightly grease a 9x13-inch cake pan. Line the bottom lengthwise with parchment paper—this will make it easier to remove the cake once it’s done.

In a medium bowl, sift together flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, salt and ground cinnamon. Using a whisk, mix until well combined. Set aside.

In another medium bowl, mash the bananas well using a potato masher or fork. Set aside.

In a large bowl, add in butter, vegetable oil and sugar. Using an electric mixer (hand or stand mixer—see note 3), cream together for 2 minutes until light and creamy.

Add in eggs one by one, mixing well after each addition (about 10–15 seconds between eggs).

Next add in the mashed bananas, vanilla and Greek yoghurt. Mix on a medium speed until well combined. The mixture may look a little curdled—that’s okay. Set the mixer aside, as the remainder of the batter will be finished by hand.

Finish off by adding in the premixed dry ingredients to the wet mixture, and gently fold in with a spatula until just combined and no streaks of flour remain. Be careful not to overmix.

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Tap the pan lightly on the counter once to remove any large air bubbles, then bake for 28–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 20 minutes, before carefully turning it out onto a wire rack to completely cool. Once cooled, carefully invert onto a serving plate (see video for demonstration if unsure how) and frost with cream cheese frosting (recipe below).

Banana Cake

Cream butter for a few minutes until light and fluffy. Either use a hand or stand mixer on a medium-high speed. If using a stand mixer, use the paddle attachment.

Add in powdered sugar in two batches while mixing on low. Ensure each batch is fully incorporated before adding the next.

Next add the cold cream cheese, vanilla and fresh lemon juice. Mix just until smooth. Avoid overmixing (see note 4).

Cream Cheese Frosting

Your cakes always look so good.  could sour cream be substituted for the greek yogurt.  thanks
