Ingredients
Scale
3 large eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
2/3 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2 medium)
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)
1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
6 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
1 cup powdered sugar (for filling)
1 tsp vanilla extract
Optional: 1/2 tsp cinnamon or 2 tbsp caramel sauce
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper. Grease the paper as well.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar until thick and smooth (about 2-3 minutes).
Mix in vanilla extract and mashed bananas.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
Gently fold dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan and bake for 13–15 minutes or until the top springs back when lightly touched.
While still warm, invert the cake onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Peel off parchment paper and roll the cake and towel together from the short end. Let cool completely.
In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and optional cinnamon or caramel. Beat until creamy.
Carefully unroll the cooled cake, spread the filling evenly over the surface, and re-roll tightly without the towel.
Wrap the roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
