Time 2h10m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 cup whole almonds
¼ cup butter, softened
¼ cup brown sugar
¼ cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons white sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, at room temperature
2 cups white sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 large eggs
3 very ripe bananas, mashed
1 cup plain yogurt
½ cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons milk
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Heat a heavy skillet over medium heat. Add almonds and toast slowly, watching carefully and stirring constantly until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool, about 5 minutes. Chop into coarse pieces.
  • Combine butter, brown sugar, flour, white sugar, and cinnamon for streusel in a bowl. Blend using a pastry blender. Stir in almonds gently and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Generously grease and flour a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®).
  • Mix flour, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl and set aside.
  • Beat butter in a bowl using an electric mixer until fluffy. Add sugar and whip until fluffy. Add vanilla extract and mix well. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix bananas into batter on low speed until just blended. Alternate adding flour mixture and yogurt until batter is combined.
  • Place 1/4 cup of batter into the prepared cake pan. Layer with 1/2 of the streusel mixture. Add another 1/4 cup of batter and top with remaining streusel. Add remaining batter; pan will be very full, but should not overflow.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a wooden skewer or long spaghetti noodle inserted into the center of the cake comes out very clean, 65 to 75 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Invert the pan onto the rack to remove the cake.
  • While cake begins to cool, mix confectioners' sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and salt until icing is well blended. Poke the top and sides of the cake gently with a fork while still warm. Drizzle icing over cake. Serve warm or allow to cool completely before serving.

This cake is a great way to use up ripe bananas. I always have a few bananas that are about to go bad, so this recipe is a lifesaver.

I'm not a huge fan of bananas, but I decided to give this recipe a try and I'm so glad I did! The banana flavor is subtle and not overpowering, and the streusel topping is the perfect finishing touch.
