Gluten-Free Banana Cake w/ Vanilla Buttercream

Let’s talk about banana cake — not banana bread (though I bow down to its comforting charm), and not just any cake, but a gluten-free banana layer cake crowned with a cloud of vanilla buttercream. It’s a dessert that struts confidently between rustic coziness and celebration-worthy elegance. This cake is a soft-spoken showstopper: rich with banana flavor, textured just right, and layered like it has somewhere fancy to be.

But beneath its golden surface, there’s a quiet rebellion happening — no gluten, no compromise. If you’ve ever baked gluten-free, you know the perils: crumbly disasters, gummy middles, or that dreaded sandy texture. But this cake? It defies every stereotype.
