BANANA CRANBERRIES & WALNUT BUTTER CAKE

Another of my favourite cake with lots of fruits.  To prove whether this is a keeper - I baked on Saturday and it was like "Hmmmm sooooooooo good, I must have more" so I baked again on Sunday.

another colleague gave me this  Trust me - this is really a good cake to try.
