Best Sour Cream Banana Cake With Toffee Bar Topping Recipes

SOUR CREAM BANANA CAKE WITH TOFFEE BAR TOPPING

Steps:

• Set oven to 350 degrees.
• Set oven rack to second-lowest position.
• Grease a 13 x 9-inch baking pan.
• To make topping: in a small bowl, mix together the confectioners sugar and 1/3 cup flour.
• Rub the butter in the flour mix with your fingertips to make a crumb mixture.
• Stir in the caramel bits, Heath bars or Crispy Crunch bars; set aside.
• In a small bowl, mash (do not mix with a mixer) the bananas; set aside.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; set aside.
• In another bowl, with an elecric mixer (if you have a heavy-duty stand mixer attach the paddle attachment) and cream the butter and sugar very well until soft (about 6 minutes).
• Add in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition and the vanilla.

STICKY TOFFEE BANANA CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter and flour an 8x8-inch baking dish.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer, mix the melted butter and sugar until blended. Add the eggs, mashed bananas, lemon juice and vanilla extract and mix well.
• On low speed, stir in the flour mixture until just incorporated. Do not over mix. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until golden, and a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 35 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce. Bring the heavy cream, brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, and salt to a boil in a heavy small saucepan over high heat, whisking until the sugar dissolves. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook at a gentle boil, whisking occasionally, until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 15 minutes. It should be the consistency of maple syrup -- it will continue to thicken as it cools. Remove the sauce from the heat and cool.
• Spoon ⅓ cup of the toffee sauce over top of the baked banana cake. Return the cake to the oven and bake until the sauce is bubbling vigorously, about 6 minutes. Cool the cake in the pan on a rack for at least 30 minutes. Cut the cake into 9 squares or 12 rectangles. Serve the cake slightly warm or at room temperature with warm toffee sauce and top with sliced bananas and pecans, if desired.
• Note: Sauce can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill; then rewarm slightly before using. If it seems too thick, add more heavy cream to thin it to desired consistency.
• Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The cake can be frozen (without the toffee sauce) for up to 3 months. Bake the cake for 35 minutes, let it cool completely, double-wrap it securely with aluminum foil or plastic freezer wrap. Thaw on the countertop the night before you plan to eat it. Before serving, place the cake back in the oven with the toffee sauce and proceed with the recipe from there.
