go- bananas coffee cake
(3 ratings)
I made this recipe because I had gotten 97 cents worth of over ripened bananas, enough to make 2 different Banana dessert recipes. This is the first. This recipe was in one of my Goose Berry Patch cookbooks called "QUICK & EASY FAMILY FAVORITES". I LOVE how easy & simple the recipe is, & the best thing of all was the results & how tasty it was. This was the first time I had ever made a COFFEE CAKE, & with a great recipe like this, it will not be my last. I did make a few minor adjustments to the recipe but all for the better in my opinion. I am sure you will agree it is quite tasty

9OPTIONAL STEP: I CHOSE TO MAKE 2 SEPERATE BATCHES OF NUT TOPPING. I ADDED 1/2 OF THE FIRST BATCH TO THE CAKE BATTER. Then I poured only half of the cake batter into the pan, then topped it with the remaining other half of the nut topping. Then poured the remaining cake batter on top, smoothed it over the first layer and then made a second nut topping & sprinkled it over the top of the coffee cake, and baked as directed. This step Added some EXTRA CRUNCH AND TOASTED NUTS TO THE CAKE.
