Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking dish. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, beat together the mashed bananas, softened cream cheese, and vegetable oil with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy. (Mixing time: 2 minutes)

03

Step

Add the cake mix to the banana mixture and continue beating on medium speed until well combined, about 3 minutes. Ensure there are no large lumps. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish. (Mixing & prep time: 5 minutes)

04

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. (Bake time: 30-35 minutes). Let cool completely before slicing and serving.

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the batter.
If you don't have a cake mix with candy bits, you can add 1/2 cup of sprinkles to a plain cake mix.
To prevent the cake from sticking, line the baking dish with parchment paper before greasing and flouring.
This cake is best stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
