A simple and tasty pumpkin cake with a twist: we use mashed banana for extra flavor and moisture. Serve with your favorite frosting or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

1 cup all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
2 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3/4 cup SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener, Granulated
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup mashed banana
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups canned pumpkin
2 large eggs
4 large egg whites

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan. Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl combine SPLENDA® Granulated Sweetener, oil and mashed banana. Blend in vanilla and pumpkin, then beat in eggs and egg whites one at a time. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Spread batter into prepared pan.
3. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool.

Makes 14 servings.
