Notes

- 1.Use a 9″ round spring-form pan, although this has worked for me in the standard 9″ cake pan others have had trouble with the batter spilling over, so to be safe, use a higher sided pan.

- Combine your brown sugar and melted butter before placing it in the bottom of the pan. I’ve seen other recipes that call for sprinkling of brown sugar and pouring of butter, but this is the method that works perfectly for us!

- You can use ripe or overripe bananas in this recipe, the bananas “seen” will be baked and caramelized, so if they are already super soft, it is ok.

- Wrap your springform pan with tin foil in case you happen to have sugar leak out or go grab yourself one of these amazing rimmed springform pans that we use!

- Let the cake rest in the pan about 5 minutes before turning it onto a serving platter.
