Found this recipe on a message board over a year ago. Its wonderful and has a light texture.
Ingredients:
2 2/3 cups pastry flour
2 2/3 cups sugar
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 bananas (very ripe)
3 large eggs (room temp)
1/2 cup buttermilk (room temp, can add 1/2 tbs. of vinegar to regular milk if you don't have buttermilk)
3/4 cup oil
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees
2. Sift together the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
3. In your mixer mash the bananas.
4. Mix in the eggs one at a time until each is completely incorporated.
5. Then mix in the buttermilk, oil and vanilla.
6. Then mix the dry ingredients into the batter just until thoroughly combined.
7. Pour into a 9X13 inch greased pan and bake for 35-40 minutes until golden brown and toothpick comes out clean.
8. Cool on a rack.
9. I doubled this recipe and used three fourths whole wheat pastry flour and the other one fourth white pastry flour. I also sifted the flours but I don't know if its needed?Came out great. Very fluffy, moist and sweet. I didn't frost it.
