Way too salty! Otherwise good.

A lovely moist banana cake that was easy to make and received 5 stars from all of my family. I baked the recipe using the two round cake pans, but think this recipe would be lovely baked using mini loaf pans/tray too. I can't believe this cake hasn't been reviewed before.
