Ingredients

For this delicious cake, you’ll need the following ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup buttermilk
3 large eggs

1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced (for decoration)

Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create your own Strawberry Banana Cake:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, stir in the mashed bananas and vanilla extract.
In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk. Mix until just combined.
Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans and smooth the tops.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
Once cooled, place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of whipped cream over the top and add some sliced strawberries.
Gently place the second cake layer on top and frost the cake with whipped cream. Decorate with remaining sliced strawberries.
Slice and enjoy this delicious Strawberry Banana Cake!
