Black Bottom Banana Cake

 Another marvelous banana cake recipe.... What I like about it, is using only one egg to produce a standard size cake and yet the cake is light & fluffy. Many others have tried it too with positive comments. I made this to return my friend's container (who gave me Kelupis the other day).
