For the Cake:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup butter, softened

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, vanilla, mashed bananas, and sour cream until smooth.
4. Slowly fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely.
