    In the ingredients list it says to use 1/2 tsp. of baking soda. In the directions it says mix the baking powder. Which is it - baking soda or baking powder?

    I only eat bananas when they are paired with alcohol (like Bananas Foster), so I would enjoy this particular banana cake! Thank you for sharing.
