Grease and flour a 9 x 13 pan. Place 1 \u00bd T. lemon juice in a measuring cup. Top to 1 \u00bd C. with milk. Set aside. Mix together mashed banana with 1 T. lemon juice, set aside. Beat together butter, brown and white sugar until combined. Add in eggs one at a time and vanilla. Mix on high until light and fluffy (almost the texture of frosting). Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Alternate adding flour mixture and milk to egg mixture stirring just until combined. (Do not overmix). Fold in bananas. Pour into prepared pan. Put into the oven and reduce heat to 300\u00b0F. Bake 60 \u2013 70 minutes (see note below) or just until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean (do not over bake). Remove from oven and place in the freezer for 45 minutes to make the cake extra moist. Cool completely before frosting. FROSTING: Cream together butter &amp; cream cheese until fluffy. Add in lemon zest and juice. Add powdered sugar a little at a time until you reach desired consistency. Spread over cooled cake.\u00a0 Note: The cooking time on this cake can vary! Mine takes about 60 minutes. Check your cake at 55 minutes, if it isn\u2019t ready, continue cooking until a toothpick comes out clean (this can be up to an additional 20-30 minutes depending on your oven).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fluffy Banana Cake &nbsp; 1 \u2153 cup mashed bananas 2 \u00bd T. lemon juice divided 1 \u00bd C. milk 3 C. flour 1 \u00bd tsp. baking soda \u00bc tsp. salt \u2154 cup butter softened 1 cup white sugar \u00bd cup brown sugar 3 large eggs 1 tsp. vanilla &nbsp; 8 ounces cream cheese \u2153 cup butter softened 3-3 \u00bd C. powdered sugar 1 tsp. lemon juice 1 \u00bd tsp. lemon zest from 1 lemon &nbsp; Preheat oven to 350\u00b0.
