Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 13x9-inch cake pan by spraying it with baking spray.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the mashed ripe bananas, whole milk, and lemon juice until smooth and creamy.
- In another bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, baking soda, and kosher salt, whisk until evenly mixed.
- Cream together the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy.
- Add the large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then add the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
- Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture and the banana mixture to the creamed butter mixture, alternating between the two.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top, then bake for 55-60 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Once baked, allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a stand mixer, beat the cream cheese and softened butter until smooth, then gradually add the sifted confectioners’ sugar until fluffy.
- Once the cake is cooled, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top using a spatula.

Notes
Ensure your bananas are very ripe for the best flavor and texture. Measure the flour carefully to avoid a dense cake.
