Upside-down banana cake is a delightful and moist dessert that combines caramelized brown sugar, butter, and ripe bananas, all topped with a rich and fluffy cake. This recipe, perfect for banana lovers, is both simple to follow and impressive to serve, making it an excellent choice for family gatherings or any occasion.
- Ensure your bananas are ripe but not overly mushy for the best texture and flavor.
- Room temperature butter, eggs, and buttermilk will mix more evenly into your batter, resulting in a smoother texture.
- Complete the caramel topping quickly after melting the butter and brown sugar to prevent it from hardening before adding the bananas.
- Use a knife or thin spatula to loosen the cake edges before inverting it onto a serving plate to ensure a clean release.
- Let the cake cool for about 10 minutes before inverting to allow the caramel to set slightly, but not too long where it solidifies completely.
Your upside-down banana cake, now flipped to showcase its beautiful caramelized banana topping, is ready to enjoy. The moist crumb of the cake combined with the sweet, rich banana topping makes for an irresistible treat. Serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra special touch.
