Instructions
Preheat your oven to 160ºc/140ºfan and line a 9x13" traybake tin with parchment paper!
Mush the bananas up until they're soft and mushy
In a new bowl, add the unsalted butter and light brown soft sugar and beat until smooth and light.
Add in the eggs, mashed banana, soured cream and vanilla extract and beat again.
Add in the self raising flour and baking powder and beat again until combined.
Pour the mixture into the lined tin and spread
Bake in the oven for 60-70 minutes - until baked through.
Once baked, leave to cool fully.
Frosting
Beat the butter on it's own for a few minutes to loosen it.
Add in the icing sugar, and beat again - I beat this for about 5 minutes, to make it really smooth.
Make sure your cream cheese doesn't have any excess water - I find it best to add it to a bowl first just to make sure.
Add in the cream cheese, and vanilla and beat until thick and smooth.
Decoration
Spread the frosting onto the cooled cake, and top with the chopped nuts. ENJOY!
Notes
The baking time can vary, but it shouldn't take much longer at all than the recipe says.
This recipe will last for 4-5 days easily - and tastes amazing throughout!
