Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350F and lightly grease the sides and bottoms of two 8" or 9" pans.
- Mix together the butter, oil, and sugar in a large bowl. If possible use an electric mixer. Beat that up until well combined. Add eggs in and mix well. Continue adding the following ingredients: bananas, crushed pineapple, and vanilla extract. Stir that up really well.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Fold the dry ingredients into the bowl of wet ingredients. Use a spatula instead of a mixer for this step. Then fold in the pecans. Stir all of it until completely combined. However, make sure you don't over stir, just combine the ingredients and that's it.
- Get your lightly greased cake pans ready and pour the batter into them. Put them in the preheated oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Use a toothpick to poke the middle and when it comes out clean they are done. Every oven is different so start checking at 25 to 30 minutes, especially if you are using 8-inch cake pans.
- Allow to cool in the baking pans for 5 minutes and then while still warm, remove them onto a wire rack. You can jiggle them a bit to loosen them and flip. I tend to run a knife around the edges and then carefully flip them out onto a cooling rack to cool all the way through.
