Ingredients for Banana Whoopie Pies

How to Make Banana Whoopie Pies

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, mash bananas until smooth. Add eggs, oil, and vanilla extract; mix well.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
5. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each whoopie pie.
6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden brown.
7. Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. While cakes cool, prepare the frosting: In a medium bowl, beat butter until light and fluffy.
9. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, beating until smooth and creamy. Add milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
10. Once the cakes are completely cool, frost the bottom of one cake with a spoonful of frosting and top with another cake to create a whoopie pie.
11. Enjoy your homemade Banana Whoopie Pies!
