Vegan Banana Cake

hi friends! i hope that you are all staying safe, taking care of yourselves and finding the joy in baking or cooking. i made you all the most delicious banana cake with chai frosting and it is as fluffy as a cloud. just check out that texture, it’s amazing! i think the secret to the texture is the vegan sour cream i used.

vegan cream cheese would be another great option! also, if you don’t add the maple syrup to the frosting or omit it altogether, this would be a recipe free of added sugars!
