Banana Bundt Cake

"I clipped this from a supermarket cookbook a while back, and I don't know which brand it was. The recipe was submitted by a Nancy slover, from Federal Way Washington. Thanks Nancy, this is a real hit at my son's school's bake sale! If serving at the bake sale, I leave out the nuts, but for home baking, I put them in."

Awesome cake! Very moist. I added some chocolate chips then topped it with a powdered sugar/milk glaze. It was gobbled up!

Thank you so much for this recipe! This one's a keeper. In spite of only having 1-3/4 cups of mashed banana, I added 3 more teaspoons of vanilla to make the flavor "pop" and the cake got devoured. This cake was moist, sweet and flavorful. Definitely worth making!!!
