- Process banana and pineapple in food processor until smooth; set aside. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in large bowl.
- Microwave 2 tablespoons butter in medium microwaveable bowl until melted. Whisk in half-and-half, egg, 2 teaspoons vanilla and banana mixture until well blended. Add to flour mixture; mix just until blended. (Batter will be lumpy.) Spoon into pan, filling cavities about ¾ full.
