Categories     Dessert

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup unsalted butter ((2 sticks), at room temperature)
2 cups granulated sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Zest of 1 orange (optional)
2 large eggs (at room temperature)
4 large bananas (very ripe, mashed (1 1/2-1 3/4 cups))
1 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt (plus 2 tablespoons, at room temperature)
4 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese (at room temperature (do not use fat free))
3 tablespoons unsalted butter (at room temperature)
2 cups powdered sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla bean paste (or extract)
Pinch kosher salt

Steps:

  • Center a rack in the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Generously grease a 9- to 10-inch (12-cup) bundt pan.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, white whole wheat flour, baking soda, and kosher salt. Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or a large mixing bowl, beat the butter until smooth and creamy, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add the granulated sugar and cream into the butter at medium speed until pale and fluffy, 2 to 3 additional minutes, stopping to scrape down the bowl as needed.
  • Beat in the vanilla and orange zest. Scrape down the bowl, then add the eggs one at a time, beating for about 1 minute after each egg is added. Reduce the mixer speed to low and mix in the mashed bananas.
  • With the mixer still on low, add half of the dry ingredients (the mixture may look curdled), mixing just until combined, then add the yogurt, followed by the rest of the flour mixture.
  • Transfer the batter into the prepared pan, then tap the pan on the counter a few times to remove any of the bubbles. Smooth the top.
  • Place the pan directly on the oven rack (do not use a baking sheet) and bake for 60 to 70 minutes, until a thin knife inserted deep into the center of the cake comes out clean (the baking time can vary based on the moisture content of your bananas, so be sure to check it early to ensure it doesn't overbake, and don't be afraid to go a few minutes longer if the knife is not yet coming out clean). Check the cake at the 30-minute mark; if it is browning too quickly, tent it loosely with foil.
  • Transfer the cake to a wire rack and let cool for 10 minutes, then gently unmold it onto the rack to cool completely. If you have time, wrap the cooled cake in plastic and allow it to sit overnight before serving-it's even better the next day.
  • To prepare the frosting, beat the cream cheese and butter on medium speed until smooth and combined, about 1 to 2 minutes. Reduce the mixer speed to low. Gradually add the powdered sugar, then the vanilla bean paste and salt. Increase the speed to high, and continue beating until completely smooth and combined.
  • Spread the frosting over the cooled cake, cut into slices, and enjoy.

I love to experiment in the kitchen and I had some ripe bananas that I wanted to do something with, so I just started putting a bundt cake together using some of my recipes. I like this cake. It was moist and easy to take to pot lucks or wherever it needs to go..It can be drizzed with melted store bought icing or you can make...

Bahama Mama Banana Rum Cake image

A cake that blends a favorite drink with a rum cake and pound cake. This is dense, but not heavy, and the spicy molasses kick from the dark rum enhances the banana flavor. You may use light or dark brown sugar.

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup dark rum
1 1/2 cups chopped pecans, toasted
1 1/2 cups unsalted butter
2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
5 large eggs, room temperature
1 cup mashed banana, very ripe
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 tablespoons dark rum
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • TO MAKE THE GLAZE.
  • Combine the butter, water, and sugars in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the rum. Set aside and keep warm.
  • TO MAKE THE CAKE.
  • Position a rack in the middle of the oven and heat to 350°F Spray a 10-cup tube pan with nonstick cooking spray. Sprinkle the pecans in the bottom of the pan and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
  • One by one, beat in the eggs, taking care to mix well between each addition.
  • Beat in the mashed bananas, vanilla, and rum.
  • Sift the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt over the batter and fold in using a rubber spatula, just until no streaks of flour remain.
  • Fold in the sour cream.
  • Spoon the batter into the pan and spread to the pan using the back of a rubber spatula.
  • Bake about 60-80 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Use a wooden skewer to poke holes all over the cake and pour 1/4 cup glaze over the cake.
  • Allow to cool for 5 more minutes. Place a serving platter over the pan and invert to release the cake. Spoon the remaining glaze over the cake, little by little, and let stand until the glaze is completely absorbed by the cake. If the glaze starts to pool at the base of the cake, use a small metal spatual to spread it up and around the sides of the cake. As the glaze cools, it will form a rummy, sugary shell.
  • Allow to cool completely before serving.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cake will be. If you don't have any ripe bananas on hand, you can ripen them quickly by placing them in a paper bag with an apple or pear for a few hours.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy: This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender cake.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition: This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Mash the bananas before adding them to the batter: This will help to distribute the banana flavor evenly throughout the cake.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before glazing: This will help the glaze to set properly.
