Recipe by Deja A

Whenever I have overripe bananas, I always make this easy cake. You always have all of the ingredients on hand and it mixes up in a hurry. This recipe works for cupcakes, loaf pans, 9 x 13 pyrex or 8 or 9 inch layer cake pans. Frost with your favorite cream cheese or buttercream recipe.
