BANANA-PUMPKIN BUNDT® CAKE



Banana-Pumpkin Bundt® Cake image

I came up with this cake as a way to use up some extra pumpkin puree and a few really ripe bananas. It's a better-for-you cake that isn't overly sweet, but still chock-full of flavor. Make sure to use really, really overripe bananas for the best results. If you're looking for additional sweetness, feel free to add some kind of glaze to the top of the cake as well. Adjust the add-ins (i.e. the nuts and chocolate) and spices to suit your tastes.

Time 1h15m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 cups whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
¼ teaspoon ground allspice
1 ¼ cups mashed overripe bananas
1 cup pumpkin puree
1 cup whole-milk plain Greek yogurt
½ cup pure maple syrup
3 eggs, at room temperature
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
¾ cup dark chocolate chips
¾ cup chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Generously grease a 10-inch fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®).
  • Whisk flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, ginger, salt, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice together in a medium bowl.
  • Whisk bananas, pumpkin, yogurt, maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract together in a large bowl until thoroughly combined and no lumps remain. Pour in half of the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Add in remaining dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips and walnuts. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick or bamboo skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 50 to 55 minutes. Allow cake to cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes. Gently run a knife around the edges of the cake to loosen. Invert onto a wire rack and allow to cool completely.

Number Of Ingredients 20

1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 cup canned pumpkin
1 cup banana, mashed
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon ginger
1 cup toasted pine nuts, divided
5 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine

2 tablespoons cream or 2 tablespoons milk
1 -2 tablespoon crushed toasted pine nuts

  • Pour batter into tube pan.
  • Bake in 350f degree oven for 1 hour or until tester inserted in middle comes out clean.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling during the baking process.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your pumpkin banana cake the best flavor and texture. If possible, use organic ingredients for the best results.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake at the right temperature: The ideal temperature for baking pumpkin banana cake is 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If you bake the cake at a higher temperature, it will brown too quickly and the inside will be undercooked. If you bake the cake at a lower temperature, it will take longer to bake and the texture will be dense.
  • Check the cake for doneness: Insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is done. If the toothpick comes out with batter or crumbs attached, the cake needs to bake for a few more minutes.

Conclusion:

Pumpkin banana cake is a delicious and moist cake that is perfect for fall. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you are looking for a simple dessert or a special treat for a holiday gathering, pumpkin banana cake is a great option. With its moist texture, sweet flavor, and pumpkin-banana combination, this cake is sure to be a hit. So, preheat your oven and get ready to bake a delicious pumpkin banana cake!
