  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg

  • 8 tbsp 115 g unsalted butter, room temperature
  • ½ tsp salt

Instructions

Banana Cake

  • Set your oven to 350°F and line a 9x13 baking pan with parchment. Give the bananas a good mash and keep them aside for a moment.
  • In one bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. This helps keep the cake light and even.
  • In a large bowl, mix the melted butter with the brown sugar and granulated sugar until it looks smooth and glossy.
  • Add the eggs, the oil, and the vanilla, and mix until everything comes together. Stir in the mashed bananas and the buttermilk.
  • Gently sift in the dry ingredients and fold everything together. Do not mix too much, just until the flour disappears.
  • Pour the batter into your prepared pan. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, checking around the 30 minute mark.
  • Every oven has a mind of its own, so if the top browns too quickly, lay a piece of foil over it without pressing down.
  • Take the cake out once a toothpick comes out clean and let it cool completely.

Biscoff Cream Cheese Frosting

  • In your mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the cold cream cheese with the butter and salt until smooth and creamy.
  • Scrape the bowl often, it makes a big difference. Add the Biscoff spread and mix until it is fully blended.
  • Then add the powdered sugar little by little, letting each addition disappear before adding the next.
  • Beat it a few minutes until the frosting turns silky.
  • Spread the frosting over the cooled cake. Warm a little Biscoff spread and drizzle it on top or add small spoonfuls and swirl it gently with a butter knife.
  • Finish with whole Biscoff cookies or a sprinkle of crushed cookies.

Notes

  • If the bananas are not ripe enough, place them on a baking sheet and warm them in the oven at 350°F for about fifteen minutes until the skins turn dark.
  • If you need buttermilk in a hurry, add half a tablespoon of vinegar to milk and let it sit for five minutes until it thickens lightly.
