This Cake Is Crazy – Like a Fox

This Crazy Banana Cake may be a bit out of the ordinary, but this originality pays off nicely – and you certainly don’t have to be a pro-level baker to put it all together! It’s a great idea for family gatherings and potlucks alike.

I do like to be a bit adventurous in my cooking and baking, but I have to admit, when I looked at the directions, I was a bit skeptical. This was the first time ever I had heard of such a way to bake a cake, and when I asked my friends, they hadn’t tried anything like this, either. I am glad that I took the plunge, though. This banana cake is delicious!

I’m pretty sure it’s these directions exactly that make this cake so wonderfully moist and soft! To make it even more perfect, there’s the icing… I could eat that thing with a spoon! Still, this cake is incredibly delightful even if you’re serving it as is, without the icing.

Quick Tip: Make sure to liberally coat your pan with Pam cooking spray to avoid sticking.

This Simple Banana Pudding Cake bakes in about 45 minutes, with just a few easy steps to prep it before baking. Don’t let the simplicity of this cake or its two-ingredient icing fool you, however. This cake is loaded with rich, sweet flavor, and it’s incredibly moist!  It’s a dessert that’s easy enough to make whenever you feel like a little treat for yourself or your family, and yet it will be a big hit at most any gathering.

This recipe makes good, creative use of a few basic ingredients!  The use of olive oil instead of the usual vegetable or canola oil adds a bit of extra depth to the flavor without weighing the cake down too much. You can actually eat this cake even without the simple icing and have a very nice dessert, but it really is about the perfect topping for it. Enjoy!

Quick tip: Wrap the cake in aluminum foil and freeze for a quick treat later.

This Layered Banana Split is a great, low-hassle, family-friendly dessert that also would be well received at a potluck (or even a tailgate, if you have a way of keeping it relatively chilled).  You’ll love the stacks of sweet, creamy flavor, and you can keep it simple or “fancy it up” as much as you like!

I love making an elaborate dessert, now and then, but sometimes, it is those simple ones that keep me coming back for more.  This layered banana split doesn’t even require any baking, and yet it has piles of sweet flavor that will win over people of all ages. I’ve served this a couple of times at family gatherings and it has been a huge success among the young and the old. Make sure you’ll get a portion of your own, before it’s gone!

Quick tip: Make a double batch – you won’t regret it!

If you want a simple, tasty dessert, this Classic No-Bake Banana Pudding is about as low-hassle as it gets, and you can have it prepped in under half an hour.  It’s a great family-friendly treat. I remember gobbling up quite a bit of this as a young child and still enjoy it on occasion now, when I want a sweet treat without too much hassle involved.

You can serve this pretty soon after you have refrigerated it, but it is best if you can let it rest for a few hours.  I like eating this with a bit of Cool Whip or whipped cream on top, but it is perfectly fine without that.  This is a great idea for using those bananas that have gone just a little too soft for you to eat by themselves.  Enjoy!

Quick tip: Don’t let those ripe bananas go to waste – use them for this recipe!

These “Monkey Tails” are a very kid-friendly sweet treat that even many adults will love.  And with the right toppings (and bananas as the core part of the treat), you can even manage to squeeze in some vitamins and healthy fiber, too!

Now, I love bananas even plain, but even I really enjoy dressing them up a bit.  And while it is still warm out (we still have at least another couple of weeks of hot weather left in my part of the world), most anything sweet and frozen is really refreshing.  This very kid-friendly treat hits the bill nicely.  It’s also relatively easy to put together and (depending on your choice of topping options, of course) very colorful.  I think that it would be a big hit for a child’s birthday party in summer or early fall, though of course plenty of adults will enjoy munching on these frozen “monkey tails,” too!
