This is so popular and loved by all. When two of my brother's 20 year old friends came to stay, I had to make 3 just to keep them happy. They obviously eat a lot though and 1 is plenty.

This recipe is the best ever! This "cake", after adding chopped walnuts to the batter and baking in a loaf pan, reminds me of the delicious banana "bread" that Bob Evans Restaurants serve. It is good served as banana bread dusted with powdered sugar or when served as banana cake with Caramel Icing. mmmm good!Reply
