Recipe Introduction


Posted by: dowie


List of Ingredients




2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1/4 tsp. cloves
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
3 large eggs
1-1/4 cups vegetable or canola oil
1-3/4 cups sugar
1 tbsp. vanilla extract
3/4 cup coarsely chopped pecans
3 oz. chocolate, broken into small pieces (size of chips)
3 ripe bananas, diced

For the caramel:
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 tbsp. whole milk
4 tbsp. butter, cut into pieces

Recipe



Butter and flour a 12 cup tube or bundt pan. Preheat the oven to 350°.
Sift together the dry ingredients. In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the eggs, oil and sugar. Mix on medium speed for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the vanilla extract and mix for another 30 seconds. With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients a bit at a time. Once the dry ingredients have been added, gently fold in the pecans, chocolate and bananas. Don't over mix. Spoon the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 50 minutes. Check with toothpick.
About 5 to 10 minutes before the cake is done, make the caramel by combining all the ingredients in a small pan. Bring to the boil and stir occasionally. Let it boil for about 5 minutes. Once the cake is out of the oven, poke holes all over the cake with a skewer. Immediately pour the caramel over the cake, stopping every now and then to let the caramel sink in. Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack. Once it's cool, loosen the cake from the sides of the pan and then unmold.
