INGREDIENTS

3 egg whites
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 stick margarine ; at room temperature
2 cups bananas, ; ripe, mashed
3 egg yolks
2 tsp. vanilla
2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1/4 cup sour milk or regular milk soured with lemon juice

INSTRUCTIONS

Separate the eggs and pour the egg whites into a small bowl. Beat the whites until stiff and add 3 tbs. sugar (taken from the amount in the recipe) to keep the whites firm. Set aside.

Cream together the margarine and the rest of the sugar. Add the mashed bananas and beat well but be careful not to over-beat. Add the egg yolks one at a time, mixing after each addition. Add the vanilla.

In a medium mixing bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture, alternately with the soured milk. Do not over beat. Stir in the nuts. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites.

Prepare a tube pan by spraying it with a non-stick cooking spray and then flouring it. Pour the cake batter into the tube pan and bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 1 hour. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick towards the center of the cake. When done let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out to continue cooling on a wire rack.
