Comments on: Banana Crumb Cake (and the name of my home) http://www.southernplate.com/2009/05/banana-crumb-cake-and-the-name-of-my-home.html Recipes from yesterday Sun, 12 Feb 2012 07:54:21 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Robyn http://www.southernplate.com/2009/05/banana-crumb-cake-and-the-name-of-my-home.html/comment-page-2#comment-1033089 Robyn Thu, 12 Jan 2012 19:13:50 +0000 http://www.southernplate.com/?p=3731#comment-1033089 Christy, I LOVE this recipe! I made it for my household ( total of 8 right now) and had to make it 2 more times that same week! I just got my copy of your cookbook (FINALLY) and just have to gush about it....now mind you, I'm married to an executive chef (who thinks he knows it all), he's a yankee (but i don't hold that against him) and I have to say out of the literally hundreds of cookbooks he and I have collected over our 16 year marriage YOURS is my FAVORITE. I love the way it's written as if you were actually sittin' here talking with me. The recipes are like the ones I grew up on. I no longer have my mother with me and the woman at church ( we all called her Mama Ruby) who practically raised me (helped that her daughter and I have been best friends since we was born) cooks just like your recipes. Thank you for bringing my childhood back to me. I've read the cookbook twice since it arrived yesterday. The first time I cried at the memories you talked about cuz I can remember some almost like that in my childhood. The second time I read it (today), I smiled with those memories..Thank you!!! The most important question is....when's the next book coming??? Thank you so much for your website and friendship. Keep it comin' girl! Christy,

The crumbs in this crumb cake are going to be soft, not dry like they are in some of the store-bought ones. Does that answer your question or help with your problem? If not please let me know exactly what it is you're going for and I'll check back later today and do my best to help! Thank you so much! Gratefully, Christy Hey Hilary!

Had problems with crumbs as I read others state. Thought it was because I used butter instead of marg. Made second batch with marg. and got the same thing. Thinking maybe humidity is the cause. I never saw a response on how to fix it. Help? Just made this. Had problems with crumbs as I read others state. Thought it was because I used butter instead of marg.

I added a little more flour and sugar...then that thickened it but didn't quite do the trick, I used dry oats. Seems to have worked very well. I had a real ‘sticky’ problem with the crumbs, too.

I was already thinking about banana pudding because my bananas are REALLY ripe. Now, I'm going to make this. I love having all of the ingredients to do things like this. Yay!
