Banana Nut Coffee Cake

I had bananas that were ruining. This cake is a great way to use bananas that are getting too ripe! It's moist, can be used for breakfast or dessert, and is large enough to feed a fairly large group.

Banana-Nut Coffee Cake

1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 cup sugar
4 very ripe bananas, mashed
1/2 sour cream
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups self-rising flour
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup chopped nuts

Streusel Topping

1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup brown sugar
4 tbs. sugar
6 tablespoons butter

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Spray a 9x13 baking pan.

Dust chopped nuts with a tablespoon of flour, and set aside.

In a large bowl cream butter and sugar until fluffy with electric mixer. Blend in bananas, sour cream, eggs and vanilla.

Add flour to banana mixture alternately with milk, blending after each addition until combined. Stir in chopped nuts.

In a small bowl mix flour and sugars. Cut in butter until coarse crumbs form. Sprinkle streusel topping over cake.

Bake for about 35-40 minutes, or until done. Cool a bit, and drizzle with glaze, if you like.

Easy Glaze:

2 tablespoons melted butter
1 cup powdered sugar
2 -3 tablespoons milk

Whisk all ingredients until smooth.

Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute - Regular and Reduced-Fat Versions

Although very convenient, commercially prepared condensed soups are expensive and may contain additives and ingredients you'd prefer to skip. You can use these condensed soup substitutes in dishes instead of commercially prepared condensed soups. These homemade substitutes are very easy and quick to make! They taste much better, too. I have almost stopped purchasing the canned versions. Using heart-healthy butter spreads, low-fat or fat-free milk, and low-sodium broth allows you to make these recipes more healthful. You can customize with these simple recipes by adding other seasonings such as garlic powder, celery salt, onion powder, etc. Condensed Cream of Celery Soup Condensed Cream of Chicken Substitute Condensed Cream of Mushroom Substitute Condensed Cheddar Cheese Soup Substitute 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 cup milk 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese salt, to taste Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; add flour and whisk until s...

Dough Burgers

Dough Burgers Dough burgers are popular in our neck of the woods. Phillips Grocery in Oxford has received national acclaim for their top-secret-recipe dough burger. I ate two while I was staying at the hospital with my dad recently! It is the nearest restaurant! When Larry and I were newlyweds and living in New Albany, we loved going to Latham’s for their yummy version of this delicious sandwich. Several other area cities also offer well-known versions of this unique burger. Tupelo’s Johnny’s Drive-In has the "Johnnieburger," and Corinth even has a festival named in honor of their dough burger, affectionately known as “The Slugburger.” Here in our own dear Pontotoc, we love the "Wonderburger" at Butcher Block! Dough burgers supposedly originated during the Great Depression. Adding flour was a great way to stretch hamburger meat. While possibly born out of necessity, it has remained a part of the Southern diet due to its delectable taste. I’ve eaten my share ...
