Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Butter two 20cm sandwich tins and line with non-stick baking paper. In a large bowl, beat all the cake ingredients together including the vanilla extract and 2 mashed, ripe bananas, until you have a smooth, soft batter.

  • step 2

    Divide the mixture between the tins, smooth the surface with a spatula or the back of a spoon, then bake for about 20 mins until golden and the cake springs back when pressed. Turn onto a cooling rack and leave to cool completely.

  • step 3

    For the filling, whip the double cream and fold through the Banoffee toffee. To serve, spread half of the cream over one of the cakes, then top with another sliced banana.

  • step 4

    Sandwich together, then cover with more cream then decorate the cake with an elegant drizzle of Banoffee toffee. Keep in an airtight container and eat within 2 days.

I’m looking at the picture and wondering what the cake with the crumble topping is. Can anyone tell me what it’s called so I can search for it.

This recipe isn’t great. It makes way too much icing and the icing is so sickly. Not sure it works. I only made it because I couldn’t get icing sugar anywhere! Definitely wouldn’t make again. I think it’s down to personal taste.

I made this for my 16 year old sons birthday. I was a bit concerned about some of the negative comments but decided to give it a go. It was utterly delicious. Would be great also as a pudding.

nice cake with creamy colour as my normal banana cake recipie is darker. My first attempt I tried to be clever and add caramel to the sponge. Tasted great but was an un-even cook, sinking in the in the middle. Second attempt it's pretty nice! I doubled the recipie and baked for 50 mins. I think as…

I prefer the look of this recipe as it's simple and easy to follow. What this recipe isn't suggesting that another did. Instead on spending a fortune on the gourmet merchant sauce which is over a tenner you can substitute that with carnation caramel which can be bought at tesco for £1.60
