Once I started making this cake I never went back to banana bread again. It's so delicious. I love it warm from the oven when it is light and fluffy, but it's equally good the next day. It seems to get more dense, but remains moist. It says it serves 16, but my husband and I can easily polish this off in two days. I make it for friends when they have babies and leave it on their doorsteps from the cake fairies who always come to celebrate the birth of a new baby.

Enjoy!
