Ingredients
  

For the Cake Base
  • 3 pieces Ripe Bananas Use very ripe bananas for the best natural sweetness and soft texture.
  • 1 can Crushed Pineapple Make sure it's well-drained to prevent sogginess.
  • 1 cup Fresh Strawberries Opt for bright, fresh strawberries for flavor.
  • 1 box Yellow or White Cake Mix No measuring of dry ingredients needed.
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter Melted; replace with vegan margarine for a dairy-free option.
For Serving
  • 1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream or Whipped Topping Provides creamy contrast; can use sweetened whipped cream.
  • 1/2 cup Chopped Pecans or Walnuts Any nuts can be substituted for crunch.
  • Chocolate Syrup Optional for drizzling; choose dairy-free for vegan.

Equipment

  • 9x13-inch baking dish
  • Greasing spray

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather your 9x13 inch baking dish and greasing spray.
  2. Lightly grease the bottom and sides of your baking dish with cooking spray or melted butter.
  3. Slice ripe bananas and evenly distribute them in the baking dish, followed by well-drained crushed pineapple and fresh strawberry slices.
  4. Sprinkle dry cake mix evenly over the fruit layers without stirring.
  5. Melt unsalted butter and pour it over the dry cake mix, covering as much surface as possible.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes until golden brown and juices bubble around the edges.
  7. Remove from oven and cool for about 15 minutes before serving.
  8. Top with whipped cream, banana slices, strawberries, and chopped nuts. Drizzle chocolate syrup if desired.
