Caramel, bananas, AND pecans? What an amazing flavor combination... Why had we never thought to try this before?! This Bundt cake starts with a boxed cake mix. It's very impressive when served, no one would guess how easy it was to make. It's packed with banana and pecan flavor. Great recipe, Tresa!
