- FOR THE CAKE:
- 1/2 cups Shortening
- 1 cup Sugar
- 2 whole Eggs
- 1 cup Bananas (about 3 Bananas)
- 2 teaspoons Fresh Lemon Juice
- 2 cups Cake Flour
- 1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Chopped Walnuts
- FOR THE STREUSEL:
- 1-1/2 cup Flour
- 1/2 cups Butter
- 2/3 cups Uncooked Oats
- 2/3 cups Brown Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 whole Egg
- 1/2 cups Walnuts
- FOR THE FROSTING:
- 2 cups Powdered Sugar
- 3 teaspoons Maple Flavoring (extract)
- 3 teaspoons Water
Method
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cream together shortening and sugar. Add eggs, bananas, lemon juice, cake flour, baking powder, salt and chopped walnuts. Mix well.
- Butter and then flour a pan large enough to bake batter in, leaving enough room for rising. Something comparable to 2 loaf pans, a large tart pan (my favorite) or a 9X13 cake pan. (Baking times may vary depending on the pan style you choose).
- Fill pan with the banana goodness.
- And because every decent coffeecake must have a streusel... place streusel ingredients in food processor. Pulse it a few times in the food processor, watching texture to be sure it clumps only in pea-sized bits or a little larger. The streusel and frosting can be used if you are making a loaf too.
- Sprinkle the nutty oat streusel goodness all over top of coffee cake.
- Bake for about 30 minutes or until a fork inserted comes out clean. Do not over-bake or coffee cake will become dry. Allow to cool for about 20 minutes and then make maple frosting.
- Place powdered sugar, maple flavoring and water in a medium bowl and whisk until all lumps from powdered sugar are dissolved. Drizzle it gently yet liberally over your coffee cake.
