Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees
Prepare one 9x11 pan by buttering the pan and then adding a sheet of parchment paper down the center of the long side of the pan to make easy lifting handles for when it is done baking. If you do not have parchment paper, just butter the entire pan well including the sides.
In a large bowl add your flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt and mix together
3 cups all purpose flour, 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon baking powder, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ½ teaspoon kosher salt
In a separate bowl add your oil, vanilla and both sugars and mix on medium speed with an electric mixer for 2 minutes or until smooth and creamy.
1 ¾ cups granulated sugar, ¼ cup light brown sugar packed, ¾ cup vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Now add your eggs to the creamy mixture and mix well.
3 large eggs
Add your 3 bananas into your oil and egg mixture and mash them well well. Stir to make sure the bananas are all broken up.
3 ripe bananas
Now add your dry ingredients into the wet mixture bowl and mix until it all is incorporated.
Pour your batter into your prepared cake pan.

Add all of the ingredients into a medium bowl and gently mix together.
1 cup All purpose flour, 8 tablespoon unsalted butter, ½ cup Granulated Sugar, 1 tablespoon Ground cinnamon
With a pastry cutter, two forks or your fingers, cut the butter into the dry mixture (or rub the butter between fingers) until it resembles small peas.
You can also add the ingredients into a food processor and pulse a few times until the mixture comes together.
Now sprinkle the streusel topping over the cake making sure to distribute it evenly.
Bake for 40 minutes or until it is light golden brown. It is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Make sure to not over bake to ensure a moist cake.
When done, remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
Serve by removing the cake from the pan by lifting the parchment paper out of the pan and slicing small squares.
