Peanut Butter Glazed Banana Pound Cake is simple, classic and irresistible! This is a ultra-moist cake, thanks to mashed bananas. It’s a real crowd-pleaser and perfect for any occasion or any season!
I’m back with another installment of testing pound cakes for you!! It’s such. a. hard. job! But, seriously, a job that needs to be done.
I’m the girl to get the job done!
I asked for suggestions on what frosting to pair with a banana cake on Facebook and the responses were amazing. Now, of course, I want to try all their suggestions. First up Peanut Butter Glazed Banana Pound Cake!
This Peanut Butter Glazed Banana Pound Cake is reallllly rich. It has a very fine texture with a nice banana flavor. To be honest, it was great without the peanut butter glaze. If you’re not into really sweet cakes, I suggest leaving the peanut butter glaze off.
This is the same glaze I put on my Peanut Butter Pound cake and it’s one of my favorites. I put it on everything I can so it was a natural fit for this Banana Pound Cake.

Hi Paula,
Is there a substitution for Baking Powder?
Thank you,
Paula says
This is a substitute for baking powder. However, I want to stress, I have not made this cake with these substitutions and I don’t know if the changes in proportions will adversely affect the cake.
“Baking powder causes cookies to rise, but not spread. If you run out of the right type of leavener, it’s better to use a substitute than go without. If you run out of baking powder, you can make your own by combining 2 parts cream of tartar to 1 part baking soda and 1 part cornstarch.”

1st, my dear you have WON MY HEART!!! 😁😁 I’m what most call a “recipe COLLECTOR!!” I say it’s a hobbie, others say it’s an obsession! But, POUND CAKE…ohhh, POUND CAKE!! Now, THAT I’m obsessed with!! I’m shocked that I just found your page but, so happy that I have!!
OK, I’ve been on your page about 2 hours now lol. But, I’m having 1 problem. I’m clicking on the “Two Step Pineapple”:above (I’m posting from the pg I’m on as, I’m trying to click on it). It’s taking me to the “Southern Butter Pecan” recipe, I’ve came back and have tried 3-4 times now. Although, I will make the Southern Pecan as well 😂 I REALLY want the Pineapple, like now! It looks delicious!
I wanted to make you aware of the issue, as well! If you could email the Two Step Pineapple, that would be great! If not, I totally understand how busy you are!! I’ll check back, for sure!!
GREAT page!! I can’t wait to try ALL that you’ve share!!
THANK YOU!!

Thank you so much for alerting me to that issue I have corrected it but here it is also>> https://www.callmepmc.com/two-step-pineapple-pound-cake/
Thank you for your sweet words, as you can probably tell, I’m a little ‘obsessed’ with pound cakes too! 😀

OMG…I made this for my Mom’s birthday and there were 8 of us. It was a huge, huge hit with everyone and this will be my new “go to” cake, without a doubt. A few notes: (just FYI for others) mine needed to cook for about 11 minutes longer than your longest time listed and I needed 7-8 tablespoons of whipping cream for my icing instead of 2-3. Delish! Can’t wait to try more of your recipes. And I love all of you pictures. So glad I found your site.
