Hummingbird Cake

Saturday, December 26, 2020
Hummingbird Cake is a dense moist delicious cake made from scratch with spices, banana pineapple in this amazing rich cake with crunchy pecans that make it irresistible.

Truly a vintage classic yet easy recipe for this cake,  very popular in the Southern states.

The cake is lavished with cream cheese frosting which makes this irresistible in every bite.

Many prideful bakers enter their prized recipe for this hummingbird cake as the best during the Kentucky State Fair competitions and people enjoy being a judge taste tester for sure.

This cake is sweet and moist and the nuts give it that crunchy roasted perfect bite.

This is one of my favorite recipes when I need to use up at least 4 bananas that are overripe, this is the perfect solution!

More often you will see this cake displayed with three layers with several layers of pillowy soft cream cheese frosting.

I take the easy way out and either pour the mixture into a 13 x 9 sheet cake pan or bundt to save time.

Either way, the flavors are a wonderful blend of spice, banana, and pineapple enjoyed by all.

If you love banana recipes also try my Banana Streusel Bars and my Banana Oatmeal Cookies both family favorites.
