Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 8-inch square cake pan.
Step 2
Prepare topping: Spread brown sugar on the bottom of the prepared pan and scatter butter pieces on top.
Step 3
Place the pan in the preheated oven until butter has melted, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the oven and stir and spread mixture evenly on the bottom of the pan. Arrange sliced bananas to cover the bottom. Set aside.
Step 4
Prepare cake: Stir flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt together in a mixing bowl, set aside.
Step 5
Cream white sugar and softened butter together in a large bowl. Mix in eggs and vanilla until combined. Add mashed bananas and sour cream; mix to combine. Add dry ingredients on low speed and mix just until combined. Pour batter over banana slices in the pan and smooth the top.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out completely clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool in the pan completely, about 30 minutes, before inverting and slicing.
