In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Mix well to ensure that the dry ingredients are evenly distributed. Set this aside for later.
Step 2: Mix the Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, beat the room-temperature butter until it’s light and fluffy. Add the sour cream and mix it into the butter until it forms a smooth, creamy consistency. The butter and sour cream mixture will give the cake its moist, rich texture.
Step 3: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter forms. Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can make the cake denser. Stop mixing as soon as the ingredients are just combined.
Step 4: Prepare the Bananas
Peel the bananas and slice them thinly. You can use up to 400 g of bananas, but feel free to use less if you prefer. The amount of banana you use will depend on the shape and size of your baking dish. The goal is to create a nice layer of banana in the cake, which will add moisture and flavor.
Step 5: Prepare the Walnuts
Chop the walnuts into small pieces. You can toast the walnuts in a dry pan for a few minutes to enhance their flavor, but this step is optional. Fold the chopped walnuts into the cake batter, making sure they are evenly distributed.
Step 6: Assemble the Cake
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a baking dish with butter or line it with parchment paper.
Pour half of the batter into the prepared baking dish. Arrange the banana slices evenly over the batter. Then, pour the remaining batter on top of the banana layer, smoothing it out with a spatula.
