This cake is absolutely delicious! It is so moist. The only change I made was leaving out the coconut (BF doesn't like it) and replacing it with more nuts. Thanks!

Am I the only one who always picks up those very rare and special bananas...the very, very brown ones? You know, I could be making this up. Subbed white chocolate chips and was delish!

Delicious and moist! I loved it and easy to make...good directions. Only change I made was to use pecans instead of walnuts, hubby hates walnuts. Everything else, followed exactly. I needed about 45 minutes baking time for it to be done in the middle. Great for breakfast or dessert. Thanks for posting this!
