Directions
Amish Banana Nut Cake With Penuche Frosting, This is my Dad’s favorite birthday cake Old, even brown, bananas make a moister cake This can be made a couple days ahead and covered tightly at room temperature , This was a very good cake and we all loved the sweet caramel frosting One problem though, the cake really stuck to the bottom of the pan Next time I will grease and flour the pans to prevent sticking Thankfully the frosting helped me hide the damage! Thanks for sharing , A simple delight to sink your teeth into this rich and moist cake with just a hint of sweetness We had old bananas on the counter but not one of us wanted banana bread I whipped up this easy recipe and had everyone ooohhhing and aaaahhhing when the cake was done Many of us went back for seconds! Thank you for a recipe that will be made again and again in this house
