Very moist, love the banana flavor! Great served warm with a bit of butter! The banana flavor is nice and it’s not to sweet (I can’t handle things that are too sweet). Also, my family absolutely loved it. This cake was eaten quicker than any cake I have baked in a long time! It is also inexpensive to make.

Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup butter
- 1 1/4 cups white sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups mashed ripe bananas
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup nonfat plain yogurt
- 3/4 cup chopped pecans
- 2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar, or to taste
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease and flour a 10-inch fluted tube pan.
Beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Beat first egg into butter until completely blended, then beat in vanilla extract with last egg; fold in bananas. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Stir flour mixture into creamed mixture alternately with yogurt, stirring until just combined. Fold in pecans and pour batter into prepared tube pan.
Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into cake comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Cool 10 minutes in pan before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with confectioner’s sugar before serving.
