How to Make Banana Cake Borobudur Hotel Jakarta

1. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan or a large loaf tin.
2. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Use an electric mixer for best results.
3. In a separate bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas until smooth. Whisk in 2 large eggs.
4. Gradually add the banana-egg mixture to the creamed butter and sugar, mixing on low speed until just combined.
5. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon baking soda. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
6. Stir in ½ cup milk and 1 tablespoon rum (optional).
7. Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Dust with powdered sugar or add your favorite frosting before serving.
