How to Make Super Moist Banana Pecan Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C) and grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas with a fork until mostly smooth.
  3. Add 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, ½ cup vegetable oil, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour to the mashed bananas. Gently whisk in 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  4. Beat the mixture with a hand mixer on medium speed for 2-3 minutes, until well combined.
  5. Gently fold in 1 cup chopped pecans.
  6. Pour batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
  7. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
  8. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Frost with your favorite cream cheese frosting (recipe not included).
