Cooking Instructions

45 mins
  1. 1

    preheat oven at 350°

  2. 2

    in large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. mix together.

  3. 3

    after mixing your dry ingredients together add vanilla extract, veg oil, and beaten eggs. mix together until dry ingredients are moist.

  4. 4

    then, add your bananas, sliced pineapple, and chopped pecans. mix together thoroughly. do NOT use beaters.

  5. 5

    place mix in an 9 inch round cake pan. I end up using two, but you can use up to 3.

  6. 6

    place in the preheated oven for 25-30 mins or until top is golden brown and cake mix is cooked through. you can check by placing toothpick in the center of the cake, the toothpick will come out clean.

  7. 7

    once its done take it out of the oven and place somewhere for it to cool.

  8. 8

    after giving your cake time to cool. remove each cake from pan one by one placing cream cheese icing evenly on each layer. I make my own cream cheese icing by using 1-8oz box of cream cheese. 2-3 cups of powder sugar, and 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. mix together with beaters on med speed.

  9. 9

    last, you use the 1/2 cup chopped pecans for topping the cake.

I have an accounting degree, but I am trying to get back to school for my R.N degree. at the moment I am also trying to write a novel. I love reading and writing. it brings out a more creative side of me. my passion is arts and crafts, cooking and baking. my two little girls love to stick their hands into whatever I am doing as well. they are my life, my reason for breathing ;)
