Equipment

  • bundt cake pan
  • Measuring cups & spoons 
  • Hand mixer
  • banana masher
  • Rubber Spatula
  • Oven

Ingredients

  • 3 cups flour
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs room temp
  • 1 cup Greek vanilla or plain yogurt
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • 2 sticks unsalted butter room temp
  • 4 medium bananas the more speckles, the better

Cream Cheese Frosting

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 350°F. Grease a Bundt cake pan with shortening generously.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients.
  • Add in the eggs, softened butter, and extract; combine until creamy. Mix in the mashed banana and mix until all ingredients are fully combined. Batter will be slightly lumpy from the mashed bananas and should not be 100% creamy.
  • Fill greased Bundt pan with batter and bake on middle oven rack for 60-65 minutes or until firm, and golden-brown. Insert a toothpick into center of cake to determine if it is done. It should come out clean when cake is done baking.

Cream Cheese Frosting

  • In a bowl add all ingredients, and beat on low until creamy and smooth. Carefully dollop over the cooled Bundt cake and then top with optional walnuts.

Notes

You can cover the cake with a loose sheet of foil at the 45 mins mark if it is browning too much. Allow cake to fully cool before removing it from bundt pan
