Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 10-inch Bundt pan.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
In another bowl, blend eggs, mashed bananas, sugar, and oil until smooth.
Gradually combine wet and dry mixtures; stir until just combined (the batter may be slightly lumpy). If desired, fold in nuts or chocolate chips.

Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
