Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2 bananas)
  • 1 cup pureed strawberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chopped pecans (for crumble)
  • ½ cup brown sugar (for crumble)
  • ½ cup rolled oats (for crumble)
  • ¼ cup melted butter (for crumble)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the mashed bananas and strawberry puree, mixing until just combined.
  6. Pour half of the batter into the prepared cake pan, then swirl in half of the remaining strawberry puree. Repeat with the remaining batter and puree.
  7. In a separate bowl, mix together the chopped pecans, brown sugar, rolled oats, and melted butter to create the crumble topping.
  8. Sprinkle the pecan crumble evenly over the top of the cake batter.
  9. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
