Hummingbird Cake With Banana Glaze Recipes

Steps:

• Combine 1st 5 ingredients in a large bowl; add eggs, and oil, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened.
• Add vanilla, pineapple, pecans, and bananas. Fold in with a fork - do not beat.
• Pour batter into greased 9x13 pan.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
• For glaze frosting:.
• Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and beat until well mixed. Frost cake while hot - the glaze will melt over the cake. Yum!
• Note: Don't feel like you have to spread all the frosting/glaze on the cake - just until it's the desired thickness. I put it on pretty generously and usually still have about 1/4 of a cup left. If you want it less sweet, then use less.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9-inch cake pans.
• Sift together the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine the oil, eggs, pineapple, bananas and nuts. Add flour mixture, and mix together by hand.
• Pour batter into prepared pans. Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in center of each pan comes out clean, about 1 hour. Remove from oven and allow to cool on racks.
• Prepare the frosting by blending together the cream cheese, butter, sugar and vanilla until smooth. Evenly spread frosting on middle, sides and top of cake.
