BANANA CAKE WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING HEALTH

Today I’m sharing a recipe for banana cake with a classic cream cheese frosting. But just to make it a little fancy, I’ve added some crushed pineapple to the frosting. And then sprinkled it with toasted coconut, because I couldn’t stop myself. Having all the flavors of a pina colada in a cake cannot be a bad thing! (Okay, Pina Coladas do not technically have bananas in them, but I think they should because bananas and pineapples should be married. They make the best flavor combo ever.) If you just want a straight-up banana cake with cream cheese frosting, feel free to leave out the pineapple and coconut.
