Banana Bundt cake

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Cakes and Desserts
The saviour of overripe bananas. When banana skins turn brown, their starch content turns almost entirely to sugar, acting as a natural sweetener in the cake. The mashed banana adds extra moisture to the batter, keeping it moist for days - in fact, it tastes even better the next day.

Allergen Information

⚠️ Cereals containing gluten
⚠️ Milk
⚠️ Eggs

Instructions

1 ✓

Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C Fan). Grease and flour the tin.

Tip: Banana batter has a high sugar content, caramelises easily and sticks, so be thorough.
2 ✓

Mix the flour, baking powder, and cinnamon.

Tip: Cinnamon highlights the banana flavour beautifully.
3 ✓

Mash the bananas with a fork.

Tip: It doesn't matter if small chunks remain, it adds a rustic feel.
4 ✓

Cream the butter with the sugars, add the eggs, then the mashed banana.

Tip: Mashed banana counts as liquid in the batter.
5 ✓

Mix in the flour mixture and milk alternately.

Tip: Work with quick movements.
6 ✓

Bake for 40-45 minutes (skewer test!). Cool on a wire rack.

Tip: The centre of banana cakes takes longer to cook, check deep with the skewer.
7 ✓

Dust with icing sugar to serve.

Recipe FAQ

Why is the inside heavy and doughy?
Bananas are heavy fruit. It's important to bake the cake through well, and don't use more banana than the recipe states, or the batter won't support the weight.
