Looking for an easy bundt cake to make with ripe bananas? This super moist cake contains no butter and is so good that just a dusting of powdered sugar is all it needs making it the Best Ever Banana Bundt cake.
Have some ripe bananas hanging around? If not, you’re gonna need to let some sit! This Banana Bundt cake is so moist and so flavorful! The cream cheese inside is the secret for taste & texture!! One bite, and this will be your new go-to!!
Have any overly ripe bananas hanging around your kitchen counters? You know, those super speckled, slightly squishy, brown-speckled type that the fruit flies love? Warmer than average temperatures in my home had my 3 bunches of bananas ripening faster than we could eat them.
Since my kids are so picky and act like a speckled banana is some sort of cruel joke, I decided to turn at least six my my sweet, and squishy fruits into the Best Ever Banana Bundt Cake.
At first, I had no intentions on making two banana bundt cakes, but after sampling a piece of my first sweet smelling and tasting cake, I knew that one cake would be gone in a snap. I love banana cake, or bread so much that I could eat it every.single.day. The only problem with that is the fact that my pants would not fit!
I have made dozens of banana recipes over the years, but this banana bundt cake “takes the cake” the addition of cream cheese in the actual batter makes it an all-star recipe. Since I really do not love overly sweet things, I dusted my Best Ever Banana Bundt Cake with some powdered sugar and called it a day.
Done, Bam..dessert & the next day’s breakfast was ready to go!
Serve with a dusting of confectionery sugar.
As mentioned, this cake was so good, that I made two separate cakes. My kids, and husband also approved, and requested I make it “all the time”.

Oh. My. GAWD. I want to eat that entire cake. It sounds soooooo good.
Can I put in an order for that cake please! I want it for Mother’s days! Pretty please with sugar on top?! ;)
Oh my goodness, this looks delicious. I have never used cream cheese in my banana bread, but I am sure it makes it more cake-like… than bread like… I will have to give it a try. Thanks for sharing.
I have not had a banana cake before!! This sounds delicious, would be perfect with my morning cup of coffee.
I love bundt cakes!! I never thought to make a banana one like this before sounds delicous!
Great recipe! I’m always trying to find ways to use over ripe bananas. This looks so good!
I haven’t made a bundt cake in a few year- I’d have to dust the pan off, but this looks delicious. I love that it’s not drowned in an icing so the flavors can really shine, and I bet it’s great with a cup of coffee!
This banana bunt cake looks so delicious and easy to make. I will have to try this recipe on the weekend. I love to try new banana recipes.
I will have to get the ingredients i need to make this for dessert this week. I have a bunch of bananas i need to use and this recipe looks delicious.
oo yeah! I needed a bundt cake for a party coming up, and this is perfect!! Adding cream cheese to the batter feels like a “duh why didn’t I think of that” moment.
This looks really good. I’ve been wanting to make a bundt cake for awhile now. I love banana flavor stuff, so I bet this is amazing.
Ooooooo…… Banana Bundt Cake. I’ve never made one or tasted it. I have to make this though, my husband loves bananas!!
Mmm, this looks yummy. I really want to try it. I’m not the best at baking, but I think this is simple enough that I wouldn’t butcher it.
My family is going to go bananas for this one. It sounds like a lovely treat, but since it’s made with bananas I might just start eating it for breakfast.
giril you killin me over here. lol. that cake looks amazeballs. i would def it the entire thing. lol wow.
My kids feel the same way.Then I try to peel and cut them and freeze them. However, my banana bread recipe is just not healthy at all! Perhaps this might be an alternative!
I have some old bananas this cake would be perfect for! Thanks for sharing!
I am a huge fan of banana flavored anything! I love how easy this recipe is to make. Yum!
Oh that is delicious. We area a family of love for bananas in any way or form. I will definitely do this recipe and will surprise my family!
Stop it. I’m absolutely dying with the need to have a big thick slice of this now. It looks incredible!
Looks awesome, but I only have low-fat (2%) milk. I’m assuming that won’t be a problem? Most things made with cream cheese are yummy. Can’t wait to try it.
Hello Jennifer, that will absolutely work! Thank you for stopping by!
I only have half and half or 1% milk which would work better
Hi, half and half would work better due to the fat content. Thank you, for stopping by!
Can I use coconut milk Unsweetened coconut comes in the mill section??? For the banana bundt cake recipe
Hello, I cannot promise that would work! Sorry!
Triple yum!!! Do you think adding some chopped pecans and a smidge of cinnamon would be ok? It would make it like a coffee cake.
Hello, that would be delicious!
