A bundt cake from the My Great Recipes collection. The banana flavor is more subtle then banana bread. I love the lemon glaze, but a caramel icing is great on this too! Ingredients:
1 cup butter or 1 cup margarine, softened |
1 cup sugar |
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
4 eggs |
1 cup ripe banana, mashed (about 2 medium) |
2 1/2 cups flour |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg |
1/8 teaspoon clove |
lemon glaze (below) |
Directions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter with the sugars until fluffy. Add vanilla and eggs. Blend in the mashed bananas.
2. In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and the spices. Blend in to the banana mixture. Spread batter into a greased and floured tube or bundt pan (9 or 10 cup capacity).
3. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for one hour, or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
4. Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
5. When cake has cooled, drizzle with LEMON GLAZE: Mix 1 c powdered sugar, 2 tsp softened butter and 1/2 tsp lemon zest. Gradually mix in 2 Tbsp lemon juice until glaze is smooth and well blended.
