Ingredients:
¼ cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
3 cups flour – sifted
2 eggs
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
3 bananas – sliced into round discs
1 cup milk
½ cup sugar plus 1 tablespoon cinnamon
In a mix-master combine the butter and sugar and mix until smooth.
Add the eggs, milk and vanilla and mix on low.
Sift together the dry ingredients and with the mixer on low, slowly add to the wet ingredients.
Combine together the extra ½ cup sugar and the cinnamon.
Butter a 9 x 9 baking pan.
Spoon ½ of the batter and top with the banana slices and cinnamon sugar. Spoon in the other ½ of the batter and top with more cinnamon sugar.
Preheat Oven 350 degrees:
Place in the oven for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
This is yet another way to use those bananas that have seen younger days.
Enjoy with Love,
Catherine

I make something very similar to this. For my cinnamon topping, I have a jar of cinnamon sugar that I use different sugars in; granulated, raw and brown sugars. It makes for a great topping on many things.
I do like the idea of putting the bananas in the middle of the cake, I'll have to try that next time.

This really looks like a great banana cake! Plus, it's perfect to use all of these bananas hidden in my freezer!

Perfectly timed indeed! I just told Marion today that we need to stop buying bananas for a day or so. Our freezer is getting stuffed with Bananas! When Marion buys too many bananas, make Banana Cake!!!
Thanks for sharing, Catherine...
