1-1/2 cups sugar
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 8-ounce can crushed pineapple (juice pack), drained
1/2 cup cooking oil
4 eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup chopped bananas
1 cup chunky-style applesauce
2/3 cup toasted, chopped walnuts
 #  Cream Cheese Frosting (see recipe below) 1-1/2 cups toasted,
