Calling all Banana lovers….Y’all are going to thank the heavens above that you came for a visit today 😉
This Cake is so moist and bursting with banana and pecans that it is a guaranteed to be a family favorite.
It’s not overly sweet. In fact I like to serve left overs for breakfast. And the longer it sits the more intense the flavor becomes. The trick is trying to save a piece for a day or so to test out that theory.
Banana Nut Cake
2/3 Cup Butter, softened
1 2/3 Cup Sugar
2/3 Cup Milk
4-5 Ripe Banana’s, mashed
2 Egg’s
1 teaspoon Vanilla
2 1/4 Cup All Purpose Flour
1 1/4 teaspoon Baking Powder
1 1/4 teaspoon Baking Soda
1 teaspoon Salt
1 Cup Pecans, chopped
Preheat oven to 350 degree’s
Cream together the butter and sugar for 3 minutes. Add in milk, banana’s,eggs and vanilla mix on low for 2 minutes.
Sift together all the dry ingredients, add to the batter 1/4 cup at a time while mixing on a low speed. Scrap down sides of bowl, and mix on med. high for 1 minutes. Fold in Pecan’s. Pour batter into a greased & floured 10 inch bundt pan. Bake on center rack oven for 1 hour to 1 hour and 20 minutes. *Make sure that the center is cooked through Let cake cool for 15 minutes before inverting it onto a cake plate. Do NOT force cake to “drop” from pan. As is cool’s it will pull away from the pan on it’s own.
You can serve dusted with powdered sugar, whipped cream, ice cream or drizzle with caramel sauce.
