Preparation facts

Servings: 12

Yield: 1 9-inch (23cm) cake

Ingredients

1/2 cup (110g) margarine, softened

3/4 cup (150g) sugar

2 eggs

3 bananas, medium, very ripe, pureed

1/4 cup (60g) light sour cream

2 Tbs (30mL) rum, or 1 tsp (5mL) rum extract

1 Tbs (15mL) vanilla extract

2 cups (240g) unbleached flour, white

1 1/2 tsp (6g) baking soda

1/2 tsp (3g) salt

1/2 tsp (1g) cinnamon

2 Tbs (20g) powdered sugar, for sprinkling

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 9-inch (20cm) springform pan with vegetable oil spay.

Using an electric mixer, cream margarine and sugar on high speed until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time and mix until smooth. Mix in banana puree, sour cream, rum and vanilla extract on medium speed. In a small bowl, stir flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon together. Gradually add flour mixture to banana mixture and blend just until smooth.
