How do I make a recipe less dense?

luv2cook4u @luv2cook4u (398) • United States 28 Jun 07

I made a great banana cake yesterday, but it was more dense than I would like. What do I need to do to the recipe so that the cake is less dense? While I enjoy baking, I am not super-knowledgable in the whole chemistry of it.
