Tuesdays with Dorie: Cocoa-Nana Bread

January 26th, 2010 · 8 Comments

I’m back! And what a week to join in on the fun!

Tuesdays with Dorie: Classic Banana Bundt Cake

August 4th, 2009 · 11 Comments

It’s true—banana Bundt cakes are classic. I agree with Dorie Greenspan on that one. Growing up, my mom would make a Hummingbird Cake (banana and crushed pineapple) in that classic Bundt pan. It was her go-to cake for every occasion… although as children, we longed only for a boxed cake mix cake, with frosting straight [...]
