Sounds really good. Do you think that it would taste as good without nuts? (son doesn't like them)

One recipe here: http://www.marthastewart.com/recipe/...mmingbird-cake

Google it and you'll find about 100 other recipes. Hands down, one of the BEST Southern cakes out there. And it's practically a health food. Bananas, pineapple, nuts, cheese. Make sure you eat a ol' big piece for the nutritional value. ;)

It is so good. You will forget about calories when eating this cake. You may even hide the cake from others.

Hummingbird cake is THE best. I can't even trust myself to bake one.

The only thing different I did was I used brown sugar instead of white and I did make the cream cheese frosting...it doesn't need it...
