    Banana Coffee Cake!!!

    Written by Living the Gourmet, a trusted food and lifestyle site since 2008.


    Ingredients:

    2 cups all-purpose flour - sifted
    1 cup sugar
    4 tablespoons of butter
    2 eggs
    2 ½ tsp. baking powder
    4 ripe bananas
    ½ cup buttermilk
    Zest of 1 lemon 1 tsp. vanilla

    Topping:

    ½ cup shredded coconut
    2 tablespoons of brown sugar

    Preheat Oven 350 degrees:

    Sift together the flour and baking powder.

    In a mixer blend the bananas. Add the butter, vanilla, sugar, eggs and lemon zest.

    Add the sifted ingredients slowly.

    Place the batter in buttered 8 x 8 baking pans.

    Combine the coconut and brown sugar and sprinkle on top of the cakes.

    Bake about 30-35 minutes or until the toothpick test comes out clean.

    This is a nice way to use up those old bananas and a delicious addition to a good cup of coffee.

    With Love,

    Catherine

      This looks like a lovely new way to use bananas instead of banana bread! Can't wait to give it a try!
