Thank you so much Kate!! xo
Definitely 5 star moist delicious
Awesome!! Glad to hear that Donna!! xo
Thanks Kim. I had already mixed it up by the time I saw your post. I didn’t even think about the cake mix already having leavening in it. Silly me. Anyway, I beat the egg whites and folded them in. It turned out great. The family couldn’t wait for it to cool for me to do the glaze, but it was fantastic without it.
Hi Donna,
Everything gets mixed together, it’s a cake mix with ingredients added in so you don’t have to beat the eggs first. Hope that helps. 🙂
I was getting ready to make this and when I get to the egg whites, it never says to beat them. Since there is no leavening agent other than this, I assume you do?
🙂 Thanks Shari. I am sorry, if all else fails, I always reset my browser. LOL…anyways, I don’t know why it won’t work. I’ll have to look into it further and see if I can troubleshoot. I don’t have the issue when I print the recipes, so it’s weird. Thanks for hanging in there Shari!
Yes I check the box to print the photo image and it won’t print. I’d love to include several of the photos you show in your article along with the recipe, including the small one at the top of the print recipe page. I’m not sure why the print image isn’t working but I’m able to print all other types of images and recipes. Thanks for your help. I love your recipes!!
Shari, that one did not have a picture, but I added it in just now. Sorry, I have been putting them in when I see they aren’t in, but most of them should have it. If you see any others, let me know and I’ll update. I thank you for letting me know! 🙂 Have a great weekend!!
Hi Shari! Thank you so much. Was wondering when you print, at the top of the page there are settings at the top that you can turn the photo image on or off, can you check that and see if that’s the problem?
Is there anyway you could include the photos with the “print” recipe page? I love to see what the end result will be and your photos are amazing. I’ve been copying the photos and pasting them with the print page but its time-consuming. I love your recipes! Delicious!
Hi Frannie! Puree please! 🙂 Happy Baking and have a great day!
Hi wondering what can of pumpkin?? mix or puree???
Hi Tammy! Yes, you could just substitute pumpkin for the banana. You could also try 1/2 pumpkin-1/2 applesauce or yogurt for the banana substitute. Let me know how it turns out? Happy Baking! 🙂
Can I do without the bananas? I can’t even stand the smell of bananas. Thanks in advance for your response.
Hi Kim! You will see me for sure! I love the party! Thanks for pinning!
I absolutely love this! Yummy. Pinned. It is so fun to party with you. Thank you. I hope to see you at our party on Monday at 7 pm. http://loulougirls.blogspot.com/
Happy Saturday! Lou Lou Girls
Thank you so much Annie! 🙂
I love the flavour combination you have going on here!
Hi Gina!
Cool! Yes, fall is definitely around the corner…which I love, but I hate what comes after that…it’s a bad word, 6 letters and begins with a “W”. Indiana why do I still live here? LOL! Happy Baking and enjoy! 🙂
This looks DELICIOUS!! Definitely going to try this fall!
