HUMMINGBIRD CAKE - FLORIDA STYLE
This cake in many versions has been in most cooking magazines and now is on most websites. It is a favorite at get-together's and church socials. Living in Florida I wanted to add a bit more fruit to make a Florida Style Hummingbird cake and make use of coconut which falls in my yard almost year round. This cake will even have non-cake people wanting to have more of it!

Steps:
- Set out all ingredients before you start as the eggs, butter and cream cheese need to be at room temperature. Then prepare your pans (grease and floured) and chop the nuts, mash and measure the bananas, finely shred about ½ of a large carrot, then preheat the oven to 350°.
- In a large bowl, whisk all the dry ingredients together and set aside.
- n a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, oil, and apple butter/apple sauce together. Mix in the vanilla, mashed bananas, crushed pineapple with juice, and optional items: golden raisins, finely shredded carrot and ½ cup of shredded coconut. Stir to mix well.
- Then add dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir with a wooden spoon or spatula lightly until batter is mixed well without over mixing.
- Pour batter into 2 round cake pans and spread evenly as possible to avoid a hump in the middle.
- Bake at 350º for 30-40 minutes. Dark pans cook faster. Check for doneness at 30 minutes with toothpick. If it comes out gooey then bake additional 5 minutes and recheck and repeat if necessary.
- Make cream cheese frosting while cake is baking. Lightly toast 2/3 cup of pecans and 1/3 cup of coconut and let each cool.
- Cool in pans 30 minutes then turn out to wire racks to cool completely. Can be cooled in pans and then transferred to serving platter.
- Once cake is cooled completely, frost top of bottom layer, add second cake layer and frost. Then sprinkle or decorate with toasted coconut and pecans. This cake can also be made in a sheet cake pan (9x13) for one layer cake.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spray and flour three 8-by-2-inch round cake pans, tapping out excess flour; set aside.
- Prepare the cake; in a large bowl, stir to combine self-rising flour, sugar, oil, pecans, bananas, pineapple, vanilla, cinnamon, and eggs.
- Divide batter evenly between prepared pans, smoothing with an offset spatula. Bake, rotating pans halfway through, until the tops spring back when gently pressed with your fingertips, 26 to 28 minutes.
- Transfer pans to a wire rack to cool 10 minutes. Invert cakes onto wire rack. Re-invert cakes and let them cool completely, top sides up.
- Prepare the frosting; in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine sugar, cream cheese, butter, vanilla, and 1 tablespoon milk on medium speed until frosting is smooth. If needed, add more milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, to achieve the proper spreading consistency.
- Using a serrated knife, trim tops of cakes to make level. Place four strips of parchment paper around perimeter of a serving plate or lazy Susan. Place the first layer on the cake plate. Spread the top of the first layer with 1/4 of the frosting. Place the second layer on top and repeat process with another 1/4 of the frosting. Place the remaining layer on top of the second layer bottom side up. Spread entire cake with remaining frosting. Sprinkle the top with pecans.

Steps:
- Make the cake. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Lightly coat two 9-inch round cake pans with 4-inch-high sides with cooking spray, then line the bottoms of the pans with parchment paper and lightly spray the paper. (If you don't have 4-inch-deep pans, 2-inch-deep will work.)
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, rose petals, and cardamom and mix well. In a medium bowl, lightly whisk the eggs with the vegetable oil, coconut oil, vanilla, and salt, then stir in the dry ingredients, mixing just until they are moistened. Stir in the sour cream. Using a large spatula, fold in the crushed pineapple and juice, bananas, and pecans. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake the cakes in the center of the oven for about 45 minutes, rotating the pans after 20 minutes, until the cakes are golden brown and a cake tester comes out clean when inserted into the center of each cake. Let the cakes cool in the pans on a wire rack for 15 to 20 minutes. Place a rack over each pan, invert the cakes onto the racks, and remove the pans. Peel off the parchment paper. Cool completely.
- Make the frosting. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or in a large bowl using a handheld mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter on medium-high speed until smooth. Sift the powdered sugar into the bowl; beat until incorporated and smooth. Stop the mixer and scrape down the bottom and sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula to ensure that the frosting is as smooth as possible. Beat in the orange zest and vanilla paste.
- Using a serrated knife, trim the domed tops of the cakes so they're flat; save the scraps for snacking. Cut each cake horizontally into two even layers, creating four layers in total. Set one layer on a cake stand or plate and spread with the frosting. Continue to stack and frost the layers, then spread a thin layer of frosting all over the cake.
- Refrigerate for 15 minutes, until set. Spread the remaining frosting evenly all over the sides and top of the cake. The cake will keep at room temperature for about 4 days, if it ever actually sticks around that long.
