Banana Nutmeg Cake

So many of us end up with extra bananas around the house and now they have finally found their proper destiny. This yummy, moist and quick cake is sure to be as big a hit at your house as it is mine! This is also a great recipe to double batch and freeze a loaf or two! (For auntie Christian)

Banana Nutmeg Cake

1/4 lb butter (room temp)
1 1/2 C sugar
3 bananas
2 eggs (room temp)
1 T vanilla
2 C flour (I use 1 C white & 1 C whole wheat)
1 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
1 T nutmeg
3/4 C yogurt, sour cream or sour milk
1/2 C walnuts (optional)

Preheat oven at 350 F, butter and flour, bundt cake pan or 2 bread loaf pans. In a large bowl mix butter and sugar until smooth, add eggs and mix until fluffy, mix in bananas and vanilla and set aside. In a separate bowl, combine dry ingredients, fold dry mixture into wet mixture, once incorporated, fold in yogurt and spoon into pans. Bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Serve with chai tea, warm milk, vanilla bean ice cream or whatever pleases you!
