- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup sour cream
- 3 ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 1/2 cups)
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-cup bundt pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
- Mix in the sour cream and mashed bananas until combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with your favorite glaze before serving.
