How can this be a coffee walnut banana cake when there is no coffee in it? Also, you need to proof read your recipe before sharing as I got the adding the flour mix and noticed the sugar hadn't been used??? So I beat it in then. Really hoping this doesn't mar the finished product. It's not a cheap came I to make with all those walnuts ??. Louise
