Our crumb cake is the perfect after-dinner or brunch treat. You'll find yourself reaching for a piece any time of day. It whips up in minutes thanks to the use of packaged banana cake mix, but you can use homemade cake mix if you have a favorite recipe. Be sure that you stir the batter for quite a bit of time (we suggest about 50 strokes) to get the perfect texture; it's well worth it here. The topping for the crumb cake is made with mashed bananas, quick oats, brown sugar, and chopped walnuts for lots of savory crunch. One of the most difficult parts will be letting it cool for about 20 minutes before digging right in.
