The Banana nut cake is a simple bread type cake which is sweet & soft with all types of nuts . Can be served as a breakfast  mainly for busy kids... My kids usually like this cake with whipped cream topping .

• Roast the nuts ( Walnuts,Almonds,Pista ) on a heavy bottomed pan or in the oven for 10 mins ,by tossing it for every 3 mins .( I used to roast in the oven with a little spray of PAM oil )
• Mean while , preheat the oven to 350F  and keep the baking tray ready by brushing it with some butter (Or use the PAM oil also) on all sides  .
• Pour the cake mix  in the tray and sprinkle the roasted nuts on the top and  keep it in the oven & set the timer for 25 mins.
• Check the cake with a toothpick, When u insert a toothpick in the cake and its not sticky when u take it out ,then ur cake is ready, or leave it for 5 mins more & recheck.
• Leave the cake to cool down and cut it to the shape required.

• And decorate it as u like with some Buttercream frosting  or whipped cream for additional flavor.
