Nutty and moist Bundt cake made with ripe bananas and walnuts

Banana and walnut Bundt cake

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Cakes and Desserts
A more elegant, Bundt-shaped version of classic banana bread. The oil content and roasting of the walnuts during baking provide deep, earthy flavours which complement the sweetness of the banana perfectly. The chemistry here is simple: the bicarbonate of soda/baking powder reacts with the acids of the banana, causing the heavy batter to rise.

Instructions

1 ✓

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease and flour the tin.

Tip: For a more rustic surface use breadcrumbs or ground walnuts instead of flour for the tin.
2 ✓

Mash the bananas to a pulp with a fork. The riper, the better!

Tip: Brown-skinned bananas have the highest sugar content, giving flavour and moisture.
3 ✓

Whisk the eggs with the sugars until frothy, then pour in the melted butter and milk.

Tip: The emulsion must be uniform.
4 ✓

Mix the banana pulp into the egg base.

Tip: No need to whisk here.
5 ✓

Mix the flour with the baking powder, salt, cinnamon and walnuts. Fold into the wet mixture.

Tip: It is worth toasting the walnuts slightly in a dry frying pan beforehand for a more intense flavour. (Activation of essential oils).
6 ✓

Bake for 45-50 minutes (skewer test).

Tip: If the skewer is clean but the cake still feels very soft to the touch, it is due to the banana; it will firm up upon cooling.
7 ✓

Rest in the tin for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a rack.

Tip: The steam needs to escape, otherwise it will get soggy.

Recipe FAQ

The walnuts sank to the bottom.
The batter was too runny to hold the heavy walnut pieces. Mix the walnuts into a little flour before adding to the batter, this increases adhesion.
