• Make sure bananas are very ripe – but not rotten.
• Be sure to use an 8×8 inch pan or 9×9 inch square pan.
• Line pan with parchment paper before baking to help successfully remove the finish product when finished.

When enjoying this crumbly cake, I highly suggest reheating it and serving warm. It becomes even more buttery, moist, and decadent – it’ll be hard to just eat one slice at a time.
