Mix in eggs one at a time, with the second egg add the vanilla. Pour in mashed banana and beat just until combined. Mix in half of the flour mixture, then mix in sour cream. Stir in remaining 1/2 of the flour mixture just until combined. Scrape down sides to make sure combined, do not overmix.
- 3.Spray a 10 to 12-cup bundt pan with non-stick spray then dust with flour, shaking out excess. Pour batter into bundt pan, spread the mixture using a spatula to make a even layer. Bake in oven until toothpick inserted near center comes out clean, about 38- 55 minutes (12 cup pan will be a lesser time). Cool in pan 5 minutes then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely. Once the cake is completely cooled spread icing over top and sprinkle with chopped pecans. Store in a container.
