Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350F/180C. Grease and flour or spray an 8 or 9 inch cake pan.
- In a large bowl whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt, add the bananas, butter, buttermilk, eggs and vanilla. Beat for 2 minutes on medium speed.

CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
- In a medium bowl beat butter, vanilla and cream cheese until creamy approximately one minute. Add icing sugar a little at a time, continue beating, add the cream beat approximately 3 minutes until fluffy. Depending how you like your frosting, if too thin add more powdered sugar, if too thick add a drop of cream.
Notes
- Stir together ½ tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar with ½ cup of milk (whole milk) in a bowl, let sit 5-10 minutes before using.

- Store: Store cake covered in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. I recommend storing away from direct sunlight.
- Freeze: I prefer to freeze the cake without frosting, but you can store it with frosting if you like. Store cake for up to two months in the freezer.
