Bananas Foster Cake Rezept

This decadent Bananas Foster Cake is the ultimate Mardi Gras dessert, or the perfect celebration cake for any special occasion! A supremely moist sour cream banana cake (adapted from an Elisa Strauss recipe) is layered with luscious pastry cream, rich rum buttercream, and a homemade caramel sauce that will steal the show. While you can use store-bought caramel, making it from scratch is surprisingly easy and elevates the cake to unforgettable heights. Yes, it's an ambitious bake, but the result is a breathtaking masterpiece worth every minute of effort. Perfect for make-ahead baking: cake (2 days refrigerated, 1 month frozen); pastry cream (1 day refrigerated); buttercream (1 week refrigerated, 1 month frozen); caramel (1 week refrigerated). Prepare to impress!

Zubereitung von Bananas Foster Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. **Make the Banana Cake:** In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  4. In a third bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas. Add the mashed bananas and 1 cup sour cream to the creamed butter mixture. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Divide batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
