What You'll Need

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 4 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/4 cup light or dark rum
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup cornmeal
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3/4 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar

What to Do

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 12-cup Bundt pan with cooking spray.
     
  2. In a large bowl, beat together butter and granulated sugar until crumbly. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in bananas, rum, and vanilla.
     
  3. In a separate bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; blend well. Add flour mixture to butter mixture and stir just until blended. 
     
  4. In a small bowl, combine pecans, brown sugar, and cinnamon; mix well. Sprinkle 1/2 the nut mixture into Bundt pan. Pour half the batter over nut mixture, then sprinkle with remaining nuts and add remaining batter.
     
  5. Bake 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 to 15 minutes. To remove cake from pan, first loosen sides, then invert onto a serving platter.
