Cover the pan with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld. (240 minutes)
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a thin layer of strawberry or chocolate syrup between the banana layer and the whipped topping.
To prevent the bananas from browning, you can brush them with a little lemon juice before layering them on the cake.
Feel free to substitute pecans or almonds for the walnuts, or omit the nuts altogether for a nut-free version.
Homemade whipped cream can be used in place of the store-bought whipped topping for a richer flavor.

Mar 31, 2024My bananas browned a little even after brushing them with lemon juice. Next time, I'll add them right before serving.
