Recipe Introduction


I may have posted this awhile ago but I just made this a second time and it is REALLY good. I had some bananas getting dark and this is an excellent use for ripe bananas. You can add a little cinnamon to the batter if you like. The frosting is really good too!! I used an oblong cake pan. Everything is from scratch but it is easy! Ginny
