Upside down banana cake

Step 1/3

• 1⅓ Ripe bananas
• 1⅓ Medium eggs
• ⅛ Cup oil
• ⅛ Cup Sugar
• ⅓ tbsp ground cinnamon
• ⅔ Cups All purpose flour

• whisk
• Hand mixer
• wooden spoon

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas. Add the eggs, oil, sugar, and cinnamon, mixing until evenly incorporated. Add the flour and mix until the batter has no large pockets of flour. Set aside.

Step 2/3

• ⅛ Cup Butter
• ⅓ Cup brown sugar
• 1 Banana (sliced)

• pot
• Wooden spoon

In a pot over medium-low heat, melt the butter, then mix in the brown sugar until dissolved. Bring up the heat to medium-high, cooking until the mixture starts bubbling and the sugar has melted. Remove the caramel from heat and pour into a greased 9x9-inch (23x23 cm) baking pan.

Step 3/3

• knife
• Wooden stick

Lay the banana slices evenly on top of the caramel. Spread the banana bread batter on top. Bake 35-40 minutes. Cool until the bottom is barely warm and use a knife to loosen the edges from the pan. Place a plate upside-down on top of the pan, then invert the pan, flipping the banana bread onto the plate.
