Step 2: In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites to form stiff peaks & gently fold them into the batter until blended.

Step 3: Pour the batter into a greased & lightly floured bundt pan.

Step 4: Cut the bananas into thin coins & place slices over the entire top of the batter.

Step 5: Combine 1/4 cup sugar w/1 tbsp grd cinnamon & sprinkle the mixture atop the banana covered batter.
