Banana bread is excellent, yes, but sometimes you need something else. Like banana muffins, or this cake. It is so moist and soft, oh my goodness! It makes a cookie sheet's worth, so it is perfect for taking to a potluck dinner. It has a cream cheese frosting that goes perfectly with it. Or you could use a buttercream frosting instead, if you aren't a cream cheese fan.
