Banana Bundt Cake {with cream cheese frosting}

I think I could eat banana treats for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

I’ve got breakfast covered just fine, but I realized recently I’m lacking in the banana-for-dessert department.

It was time to remedy that problem, stat. Enter: Banana Bundt Cake with a cream cheese frosting.

But since it has bananas I can eat it for breakfast too…right?

Oh my gosh, you guys. Last week was a doosey.

The highlight? I got to spend three days eating cheese and ice cream and re-living my childhood in Portland, Tillamook, and along the Oregon coast. You probably know about Tillamook cheese – the big orange block? Anyway, I’ll have a lot more about my trip next week, but it was amazing.

My job is so hard sometimes, I just can’t believe it. #sarcasm

The non-highlights of my week included two trips to the apple store, 2 re-installs of Mavericks OSX on my Macbook, one complete hard drive erase (and all the re-installing that goes with that), and the theft of my beloved arm Kindle and some jewelry. It all ended well: my computer is working (so far, let’s all keep our fingers crossed please), I was sent a brand new Kindle and gift card for new jewelry, and my faith in humanity and the security of hotel rooms is only moderately shattered.

Just use the safe. That’s my tip for the day.

Anyway, last week called for cake. And I was craving banana cake.

Banana Bundt Cake, that is. Because banana cake, while delicious, is different than banana bundt.

In my experience, bundt cake is more dense than layer cake. Both are moist and sweet and full of flavor, but if I want an airy cake I make a layer or a sheet cake. If I want substance, I make a pound (bundt) cake.

This time I added banana to my favorite recipe. It’s the same recipe I’ve used to make lemon pound cake and orange bundt cake. Except I left out the citrus, skipped some of the butter, and used banana.

That was a very, very smart decision.
