To make the cake, mash the bananas with a potato masher or the back of a fork in a medium bowl and set aside.
In another medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon together. Set aside.
Using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment of a handheld electric mixer, beat the butter on high speed until light and creamy, 1-2 minutes. Add the granulated sugar and brown sugar and beat on high speed again for -3 minutes until light and fluffy. Scrape down sides of the bowl as needed.
Add the eggs and the vanilla and beat on high speed until combined, another 1-2 minutes. Then add bananas and beat until combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Slowly add the dry ingredients into the mixture in three rounds, alternating with the sour cream until completely combined.
Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 43-46 minutes. Cake will be done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
