Banana Coffee Cake

SUBMITTED BY: Georgia Courtney 

"You're sure to go bananas over this yummy coffee cake topped with cinnamon, sugar and pecans. 'This recipe is so delicious that a local pecan grower asked permission to use it in one of his brochures,' recalls Georgia Courtney from Las Cruces, New Mexico."
