Ingredient Additions and Substitutions
One of the things I adore about Luscious Banana Pecan Cake is how flexible it is:
- Swap pecans for walnuts if that’s what you have
- Add chocolate chips for a sweeter twist
- Use coconut oil instead of vegetable oil
- Add a pinch of nutmeg for extra warmth
- Make it dairy-free by sticking with oil and plant-based milk for the glaze
