1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup packed brown sugar

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a round cake pan.
In a large bowl, combine the mashed bananas, melted butter, sugar, milk, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring until just combined.
