Ingredients

Servings:

11 ½ cups mashed bananas
22 teaspoons lemon juice
33 cups all-purpose flour
11 ½ teaspoons baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt¼ teaspoon salt
22 ⅛ cups white sugar
¾ cup butter¾ cup butter
33 eggs
22 teaspoons vanilla extract
11 ½ cups buttermilk

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch pan.
2
Make cake: Mix mashed bananas with lemon juice in a small bowl. Mix flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl.
3
Cream sugar and butter in a large bowl until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla. Beat in flour mixture alternately with buttermilk. Stir in banana mixture. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
4
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour. Remove cake from the oven and place it directly into the freezer for 45 minutes. This will make the cake very moist.
