Our family loves banana cake...

This is my second lens on Squidoo and my first is over a year old, maybe I have had Squidoo block! A challenge has inspired to write this one, so hope it is entertaining and you like the banana cake recipes shared here.

Even though we love banana cake, I realised that we had never taken any photos of any of the cakes we had made, so our mission after creating this lens was to bake a banana cake and take photos of the process!

So my daughter and I made a banana cake and took heaps of photos and video of the process, which we will share here...Enjoy!

Ps. This is a photo from my Daughter's first trip to the Australian snow... snow trips are also a perfect time to eat banana cake.

Favourite Banana Cake Recipes...

Banana Cake Preparation...Banana cake with lemon cream cheese frosting is our favourite (however my daughter doesn't like the frosting so we have to bake 2 cakes one with frosting and one without) and we normally use a recipe from the Australian Women's Weekly Cakes and Slices Cookbook but recently we discovered a super easy and delicious cake on the net! My Mum & my 4 year old Daughter made it together in less than 15 minutes.

So this is a link to our old favourite Banana Sour Cream Cake... **Banana Sour Cream Cake**

This is our new favourite, which is so easy to make...**Best Ever Banana Cake** We have recently discovered a great variation and that is to add 1/3 cup of chopped pecan nuts to the mix. Oh so delicious!!

The recipe for the Lemon Frosting;
125 grams Cream Cheese
3 tablespoons of Icing Sugar mixture
2 teaspoons Lemon juice

Beat together until smooth - then smother your banana cake with the frosting! As my daughter would say... "yummo"!

A selection of Cookbooks from Amazon

The Cakes & Slices Cookbook should contain our old favourite the Banana Sour Cream Cake and I'm sure the Donna Hay Cookbook will contain some great cake recipes. We love Donna Hay! :)

    I can almost smell that wonderful aroma! My dad used to bake the best banana nut bread and took it to the nursing home where he worked. He stopped making it when he started packing on a few pounds, and for about 2 years afterward, employees and residents at the nursing home still asked him when he was going to bring some of that banana nut bread. Yum!!! Nice lens. Your daughter is adorable! ~Vicki~
