a serving of Banana Pudding Cake with ice cream on a white plate with bananas and a casserole dish in the background

Overripe bananas usually become banana bread…  Don’t get me wrong, banana bread is wonderful, but sometimes I just want something different!!

This Banana Pudding Cake creates a soft fluffy cake with a delicious sauce!  This cake doesn’t actually contain pudding, a pudding cake usually refers to a cake that bakes up with a yummy sauce underneath… and this one is no exception.  We love this one served warm and topped with ice cream (and sometimes we sneak a little caramel sauce on top too!)

This pudding cake can be made in either a 1.5 or 2 qt casserole dish.

    1. If making ahead, I would recommend baking the cake fully then popping it back in the oven just to reheat when ready to serve Jenn. Enjoy!
