Hummingbird Cake by Southern Living

Thanks to Mrs. L. H. Wiggins of Greensboro, North Carolina, this pineapple-banana-spice cake became one of Southern Living‘s most requested recipes in all 50 years of the magazine. It’s a deliciously moist and fruity cake, and its origins are Jamaican, where it is called the “Doctor Bird Cake,” supposedly for its healing properties. We couldn’t pass up posting this video and recipe for all our Hill Country bakers to try. It’s certainly a southern delicacy!
