Cranberry Walnut Banana Cake

I made this 'Cranberry Walnut Banana Cake' based on the same recipe as my post on
'Banana Prune Cake'  and just substituted the prunes with cranberry and added in some walnuts and lemon juice.  For easy reference I'll retype the recipe as follows .......

This cake is moist, full of flavour and nutritious.   I made this for breakfast and had some for afternoon tea as well.
