The love child of banana bread and carrot cake (except with no carrots at all, but with pineapple) and with thick layers of cream cheese frosting, this cake has very quickly staked its place in my top five favorites list...
And I am so excited that I found not just the recipe but HIS recipe! online.
Now I need a special occasion to make it. Perhaps because tomorrow is Tuesday would be a good reason, no? I'll let you all know how it goes. And if you happen to have a recipe for Hummingbird Cake that you love, please share!
PS - Everything about dinner was uh-mazing, and I highly (highly!) recommend it to anyone in Chicago.

Oooh that looks good! I'm bookmarking for the next occasion I have where I need a dessert.
I love Hummingbird Cake! I like to make Hummingbird Cupcakes and put little "wings" on them. I checked out the recipe, and the only difference with mine is that I actually do add a little carrot, and also coconut, and marmelade. So yummy!
Oooh know what? I just woke up and decided I'd check out a few blogs. This is the first blog I read this morning. Now I am craving for two slices of Hummingbird Cake. Looks like I need to find some of that for dessert later. Have a yummy day sweetie!
I've never tried Hummingbird cake but it sure looks yummy. Let us know how it turned out if you decide to make it.
Hugs to you, Kristin!
