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

What's a Hummingbird Cake?

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.

Anyone who wants to is welcome to come to my house and make this for me! I'll let you see my stash! ;)

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...
