This is a rather solid cake full of good stuff. It makes a cup of coffee taste extra good in the morning. It packs up nicely for a lunch time treat. A scoop of vanilla ice cream turns it into a great after-dinner dessert.
Anytime Cake
2 cups granulated sugar
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups finely diced bananas
8 ounces crushed pineapple with the juice
2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
Mix dry ingredients together. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir until well blended, do not beat with the mixer. Pour into a 9 or 10-inch, vegetable oil sprayed, tube pan.
Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for approximately an hour. The cake will crack slightly and bounce back to the touch. Cool in the pan on a rack. Remove when cold. Wrap any leftovers well and keep in the refrigerator.
As with most any recipe, if you don't have the mentioned cake pan, you can use loaf pans or bake in cupcake pans.
