Oven preheated to 350F, with the rack in the middle. Butter a 12-cup bundt pan and set aside.
Place all of the dry ingredients except the walnuts into a bowl and whisk to combine. Measure out 1/2 cup of the dry mixture and toss it with the walnuts in a small, separate bowl. Set aside.
Slice the bananas into 1/3 inch pieces. Set aside 1/2 cup, and mash the rest of the banana slices in a bowl. Add the rest of the banana, the apples, and the rest of the wet ingredients. Stir gently to combine.
In the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar together on low speed for about 5 minutes. The mixture should be light in texture.
Add the whole eggs and then the yolks one at a time, allowing each to incorporate before adding the next.
Alternate adding the dry and the wet ingredients, adding them in fourths. Don't pause between additions. Remove the bowl from the mixer and gently fold in the walnuts.
Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for about 60 minutes, or until it passes the toothpick test. Allow the cake to cool on a wrack for 20 minutes before inverting it onto a plate.
In the meantime, make the glazes. Whisk together all of the glaze ingredients except the chocolate and divide evenly between two bowl.
Melt the chocolate either in a double boiler or simply in the microwave. Stir half of the melted chocolate into one of the bowls of glaze.
When the cake is warm, pour all three glazes over the top. Start with the white glaze, then the brown, then the pure chocolate. Slice and enjoy.
