• Prepare your crockpot by lining it with parchment paper or spraying it with a non-stick spray.
  
• Prepare your cake mix according to the package instructions.
  
• Mix in the mashed banana and cinnamon to the prepared cake batter.
  
• Stir in the pecans.
  
• Pour into prepared crockpot and spread evenly.
  
• Stretch paper towels under the lid when covering so they fit tightly. This will catch extra moisture to prevent a soggy cake.
  
• Cook on high for 2 hours or low for 4 hours. Check your cake 30 minutes before the finishing time to evaluate its doneness. It may need slightly more or less time depending on the slow cooker. You want a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake to come out clean and for the cake to be firm.
• Once the cake is baked, unplug the slow cooker and remove the lid to allow the cake to cool. When it has cooled, ice the cake with your favorite frosting.
  
• Slice and enjoy!
