Hummingbird Cake
Hummingbird Cake is a
relatively new (British) recipe, dating back to 1978.
Mrs. L.H. Wiggins is often
credited for it.
It probably owns its name to
the fact that it's a very sweet, savory dessert, with tropical fruits - the kind
of taste a hummingbird would enjoy.
The main taste is defined by
the use of pineapple (fruit and juice), bananas, cinnamon and vanilla extract.
It's great as a Thanksgiving dessert, tasty and not too hard to make.
This recipe
involves 11 ingredients and the baking time is around 70 minutes in a
preheated oven.
Here's a version
with 13 ingredients and has a recommended baking time of 23-28 minutes.
