I'm not a fan of cream cheese frosting, so I used a different type of frosting instead. The cake was still delicious.

This cake was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more liquid to the batter next time.

I'm allergic to bananas, so I made this cake with applesauce instead. It turned out great!

This recipe is a great starting point for a banana layer cake. I made a few changes to the recipe, like adding some chopped walnuts to the batter and using a different type of frosting.

I had some trouble getting the cake to rise properly. I'm not sure what I did wrong, but the cake ended up being a bit dense.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.
