Banana Cake with Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting

March 24, 2015 by Maureen 59 Comments

Banana Cupcakes

Through the Facebook group for food bloggers called Food Bloggers Central, I met Annie Sageer from CiaoChowBambina.com.  She’s a beautiful, Italian-American woman with the most gorgeous hair (said from someone with fine, thin, scraggly curly hair).  Aside from growing beautiful hair, this clever woman cooks and bakes for the husband she adores and their three children who are off making their way in the world.

Annie might be empty nesting but she cooks like she’s cooking for the big Italian family. You’ll find recipes like rigatoni with greens, gorgonzola and walnuts, slow cooked rustic Italian chicken or  acorn squash filled with sausage stuffing.

Through Food Bloggers Central, quite a few of us decided to do a type of blog hop where we all put our names on a list and everyone was to cook a recipe from the person above on the list. Ciaochowbambina was above me and that’s how I came to make this delicious banana cake with cinnamon cream cheese frosting that Annie posted in June last year.  I make a lot of banana bread but I can’t remember the last time I made a banana cake.

Annie made this cake for Father’s Day last year for her husband and son but I chose to make it just because it sounded delicious.
