Original Recipe Yield 1 - 9x13 inch pan
 

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons margarine
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3 egg whites
  • 6 bananas
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch pan.
