Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat, then let it cool. 2. Finely grind the walnuts in a food processor. 3. In a large bowl, mix the melted butter, brown sugar, and vanilla sugar until smooth. 4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. 5. Sift the flour and baking powder over the batter and mix until smooth. 6. Fold the ground walnuts into the batter. Assemble the Cake: 1. Pour half of the cake batter into a greased baking pan lined with parchment paper. 2. Spread a layer of caramel over the batter. 3. Arrange banana slices and chopped walnuts over the caramel. 4. Pour the remaining cake batter over the filling and spread evenly. You can use plastic wrap to smooth it out if needed. 5. Top the cake with long banana slices. Baking: 1. Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). 2. Bake the cake for 30-40 minutes, depending on your oven. Check regularly to avoid overbaking. 3. Let the cake cool completely. Finishing: Decorate the cooled cake with thin drizzles of caramel and chopped walnuts. Cut the cake into equal pieces. Tips: * If you want a richer caramel flavor, consider adding a pinch of sea salt for a salted caramel effect. * Cinnamon, nutmeg, or a hint of cardamom would add a delicious depth of flavor. These spices pair well with banana and walnuts. * Use ripe bananas for the filling, as they are sweeter and caramelize better during baking. For the topping, sprinkle the banana slices with lemon juice to prevent browning. * Every oven works differently, so check the cake with a toothpick. If it comes out clean, the cake is done. If the top is browning too quickly, cover it with aluminum foil to prevent burning. * For a festive touch, serve the cake with warm caramel sauce or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The contrast between warm sauce and cool cake is delightful. * If you want extra filling, add a few pieces of dark chocolate. The combination of banana, caramel, and chocolate is delicious!
