EXTREME LEMON BUNDT CAKE

Ok so a few years ago I posted an old-fashioned banana bread recipe that is great!! It’s moist, dense and just lovely.  Then a viewer sent me a recipe for bakery-style banana bread that knocked my socks off.  It was so fluffy, sweet,  moist and full of banana flavor. So my search for the perfect banana bread should be over right? Never!!

Today I was craving banana bread but I wanted it to be EVERYTHING that these two recipes had. I wanted that old fashioned cinnamon-brown sugar-banana flavor, I wanted it to have that slight crunch on the outside yet crazy moist, fluffy, & dense on the inside. That’s not asking for too much right? With a little tweaking, I combined the two banana bread recipes on my site and out came this beauty.

The perfect banana bread. My search is over. This is my favorite banana bread…. for now : )

It’s everything that I’ve ever wanted in banana bread and I couldn’t wait to share it with you all. I hope that you enjoy it as much as we have because I made it at 12 pm. and there is one more slice left at 7:41 pm and it’s that end slice. The one that’s not nearly as much fun as the inside slices. I still plan on hiding it and eating it with a hot cup of coffee though.
