Do you remember that we had some languishing bananas in our house last week? This is what became of them. I only used the blender for the frosting. And sorry, I forgot to measure that pan again. So let’s call it 11×7. Yeah. Let’s go with that. My cake was super thin, so I was able to triple stack it with frosting for the picture, but if you prefer thicker cake, use a smaller pan. The only reason this cake is vegan is because when I opened the fridge the eggs were under a couple of things and I was uninterested in freeing them for my use. Plus, eliminating them entirely took care of the issue of letting the eggs come to room temperature. I’m too impatient for that, and lack the forethought to bring them out ahead of time, and since I used coconut oil I knew cold eggs would make it seize up and I didn’t want that. Thankfully, the cake turned out anyway – so if you’re not into eggs, this would be a good cake for you. Later in the week you will see my first forays into flax eggs!

They look perfect!
Thank you! I confess I frosted a very non perfect chunk first. Bit looked awful but tasted great :).
They look great!
Thank you! PS I appreciate it your comment esp. bc my food stylist, aka Mommy, was unavailable at the moment so I was left to my own devices.
Love the cut out shape! XOs and see you soon!! 🙂
It’s Mom’s pineapple tart cutter!! (I was going to do hearts but I couldn’t reach the cutters.)
This sounds amazing! I love PB!
It’s so nice to meet another PB lover!
