If you are anything like me, you will constantly have ripe bananas on your kitchen shelf. I always end up buying extra and do not end up finishing them. When I get those “I told you so” looks from my husband, I have to come up with some creative recipe that can make use of those ripe bananas.
And this time it was banana walnut cake loaf. It takes a few simple steps to make this cake. Wrap in a plastic wrap if you want to store it in a fridge.
I love to eat a slice or two with my tea or coffee. You can thaw the individual slices if you wish to eat it a day or two after it is prepared.
Banana Walnut cake is one of the favorite desserts at our house. You won’t believe how simple and easy it is to bake. You only need few things for ingredients that might already be in your kitchen.
