This Cinnamon Banana Bread Cake Mix Recipe takes literally minutes to whip up and it makes your house smell downright divine! Get it going in the afternoon so you can have it for dessert and so your house will smell fabulous when the hubs comes home. 🙂 I like to keep a selection of boxed cake mixes in my pantry and almost never make them according to the package. Nope, I always try to make easy cake mix recipes, don’t you?
As long as you have a few over-ripe bananas and a box of white cake mix, you can make this delicious bread! Seriously, I wish I could pull off some Disney magic and force the smell through your speakers. Sooooo yummy! LOL!
Cinnamon Banana Bread Cake Mix Recipe
Course:
Bread
Ingredients
- 1 box Betty Crocker™ White cake mix
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 3 large eggs
- 4 medium over-ripe bananas, mashed
- 4 tablespoons cinnamon-sugar
- Butter for greasing the loaf pan
Instructions
-
Pre-heat oven to 350°F.
-
Coat sides and bottom of a loaf pan with butter and then sprinkle 1 tablespoon of cinnamon sugar in pan - shaking to coat all areas.
-
In large bowl, beat all ingredients above minus 2 tablespoons of cinnamon-sugar.
-
Pour mixture into prepared pan and then sprinkle remaining cinnamon-sugar on top.
-
Bake 45 to 55 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center of loaves comes out clean and inside of cracks do not look wet.
-
Cool 15 minutes in pan on cooling rack. Remove loaf from pan to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 2 hours, to prevent crumbling when slicing.
-
For easier slicing, store loaves tightly covered 24 hours. Cut with serrated knife, using a light sawing motion.

- My favorite Cinnamon-Sugar!
- Love a solid aluminum Loaf pan such as this one.
- I like a good thin measuring spoon that will fit into my spice jars.

This recipe sounds so good and I do wish you could have made that scent come out of my computer! I have tried lots of banana bread recipes, but never one that used a cake mix. I look forward to making this with our four 4 year-old children. I am off to pin this now.
Darlene says
Don’t ya just hate if when the recipe says “butter for greasing the loaf PAN” and once you get it in the oven, you wonder about how high that bread is rising and reread the recipe and lower dwon in the recipe, #5, #6, #7, it says PANS? Please specify whether this recipe requires to be placed in TWO pans or ONE. Thanks!
Kelli Miller says
Sorry, totally a typo – you should cover the bottom and sides with butter as per the instructions. I simply go all the way up on the pan. Then, it is ONE pan 🙂
