How to Make Banana Caramel Pudding Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8x8 inch baking pan.
- In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar and 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
- In a separate bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas. Add 1 large egg, 1/2 cup buttermilk, and the mashed bananas to the well. Gently stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared 8x8 inch baking pan. Sprinkle evenly with the brown sugar mixture.
- Slowly pour 1 1/2 cups boiling water over the batter. The batter will look thin.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the pudding is bubbly and the cake springs back when lightly touched in the center.
- Let cool slightly before serving warm. Top with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
