Step 1

Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This should take a good 2 minutes.  Scrape the sides of the bowl half way through.

Step 3

Sift in the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt alternately with the buttermilk. Start and end with the dry ingredients.

Step 4

Next, add the vanilla essence. Mix until the extract is well combined.

Step 5

Peel the bananas. Place them in a separate bowl and use a fork to mash them up. Fold the mashed bananas into the cake batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter in a well greased and floured loaf pan.  Level the top.  Top with sliced bananas.

Step 7

Bake the cake for 40 to 45 minutes. Turn out onto a wire rack and cool to a warm temperature.  Wrap in cling wrap and refrigerate to let it cool down completely.

Bring the cake to room temperature before serving. The cake is best served at room temperature.
