Delicious banana cake with vanilla glaze! Perfect for a special breakfast or dessert!
If you’ve never had banana cake before it is basically like banana bread, in cake form, with frosting. AKA: Heaven. One of my favorite comfort foods, and you can serve it as dessert or eat it for breakfast! Don’t we all love desserts that double as breakfasts? Doughnuts, coffee cake, muffins… enough said. One of the best things about this cake is that it gets even better with time. So, if you can manage to save any, you can wrap it up and eat it for days and it will taste just as delicious as it did on the first day.
