Instructions
Hummingbird Cake:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and spray two 8" cake pans with baking spray.
- To the stand mixer add butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add in the eggs, bananas, crushed pineapple, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Into a bowl sift the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the stand mixer on low speed until just combined.
- Stir in coconut and walnuts.
- Spread batter evenly in the cake pans.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let cakes cool completely before frosting.
Cream Cheese Frosting:
- Add the cream cheese, butter, sour cream, and vanilla to a stand mixer and beat until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Add in the powdered sugar one cup at a time on the lowest speed setting until smooth and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- To frost cleanly without crumbs showing through add frosting to the middle of the cake as normal, a thin layer to the outside of the cake and refrigerate 2 hours.
- Don't worry if there are crumbs in the first layer of frosting, just make sure the entire cake is coated.
- Frost with the remaining frosting, with an offset spatula then garnish with the chopped walnuts.
