Banana - Pineapple Cake

This is an easy Banana-Pineapple Cake with a tropical twist. I added a few pineapple slices and baked it till it was luscious. The result was a beautiful banana-pineapple coffee cake. Its buttery aroma blended well with the fruity banana baked scents, and the delightful sweet, smooth pineapple slices. All these rested graciously on top of the rectangle moist coffee cake, generously sprinkled with powdered sugar. It’s perfect for after school or homework nights.  Enjoy this quick-baking coffee cake with scoops of vanilla ice cream. This serves 4 to 6.
