Yield:
2 9-inch cake pans

Ingredients
Cake:

3 cups all-purpose flour

2 cups white sugar

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

2 cups mashed bananas

1 ½ cups canola oil

1 cup chopped black walnuts

1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained

3 large eggs

Cream Cheese Frosting:

1 pound confectioners' sugar

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

¼ pound butter, softened

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9-inch cake pans.

Make cake: Sift together flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Combine bananas, oil, walnuts, pineapple, and eggs in another large bowl; mix well. Stir flour mixture into banana mixture until combined. Pour batter into the prepared pans.

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of each pan comes out clean, about 1 hour. Allow cakes to cool on wire racks.

Meanwhile, make frosting: Beat together confectioners' sugar, cream cheese, butter, and vanilla in a medium bowl until smooth.

Evenly spread frosting on the middle, sides, and top of cooled cake.
