Carrot-Banana Cake

2 cups flour
1 tbls ground cinnamon
2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 c vegetable oil
1/2 c applesauce
1 c sugar
1 c brown sugar
4 large eggs
2 c finely grated carrots
1 c mashed ripe banana
Nuts (optional)

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour 12 cup Bundt pan. Combine first 4 ingredients into medium bowl. Mix in oil, apple sauce, sugars and eggs. Add carrots and banana. Blend well. Pour into Bundt pan and bake about 1 hour. Let cake stand in pan 10 minutes. Turn out onto rack and cool.

This cake is very moist and pretty sweet. The recipe had a cream cheese frosting. We tried it and didn't like it. I scraped it off and made a powdered sugar glaze and drizzled that one the top. PERFECT!! You could also just sprinkle it with powdered sugar. I imagine this recipe would make great muffins. Also, I don't think I even put in 1/2 cup of oil. I had some left over applesauce and put all that I had of it into the measuring cup and filled the rest of the cup with oil. I think you could leave out the oil completely and just use applesauce. It would be a little healthier.
