  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar

For the Filling:

  • 4 ounces cream cheese (softened)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and lightly grease.
  2. Prepare the cake: Whisk together the dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, beat eggs and sugars, then add vanilla and bananas. Fold in dry ingredients, spread in pan, and bake.
  3. Roll the cake: Roll the warm cake in parchment paper and let it cool.
  4. Make the filling: Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla. Fold in whipped cream.
  5. Prepare the caramel sauce: Heat sugar in a saucepan, stir in butter, whisk in cream and salt. Let cool.
  6. Assemble: Unroll the cake, spread filling, roll back up, and drizzle with caramel sauce before serving.

Notes

  • Chill the cake for at least 1 hour before slicing for cleaner cuts.
  • You can make the caramel ahead and refrigerate it—just warm slightly before drizzling.
