Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1 cup chopped pecans

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease two 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a bowl, mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, vanilla extract, and mashed bananas. Gradually add the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined, and fold in the chopped pecans.
- Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
