Heat the Oven and Prep Your Pan.
Before you begin measuring ingredients and mixing the batter, preheat the oven. Baking a cake in a preheated oven ensures the best rise. Use either an 8×8-inch square or a 9×9-inch square pan for this recipe. Grease it generously with nonstick cooking spray or grease the pan with shortening and dust with flour. I have a nonstick pan. Do I need to grease it? Yes. To prevent the cake from sticking, grease your pan, even if it’s nonstick.
Make the Batter
1. Mash the bananas.Start by mashing the bananas. I like to use my mixer for this. Simply place the bananas into your mixing bowl and mix on medium-low speed. Mash until only a few lumps remain. 2. Add the sugar, eggs, and oil. Once you’ve mashed the bananas, add the sugar, eggs, and oil and mix until smooth. 3. Add the remaining ingredients. Stop the mixer and add the remaining ingredients. Mix until the batter is smooth. This takes about 45 seconds.
Bake the Cake
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake until a cake tester inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, this takes about 25 minutes. The top of the cake will look very brown. This is normal.
