BEST EVER BANANA BUNDT CAKE RECIPE
This really is the Best Ever Banana Bundt Cake Recipe….and the Cream Cheese Frosting……you’ll hear angels singing after one bite!
This recipe is a treasure.
Seriously.
Print this out and go stick it in the family Bible. Your grand children will thank you.
Once upon a time I needed to use up some ripe bananas. I also needed to take a cake to a church activity that night so…. I googled banana cake and found this recipe. The recipe claimed to be the best ever. I gave it a shot. Turns out it really was the best banana cake I’d ever had.
Over the passing years I’ve tweaked the recipe just a little to better fit my cooking style and I gotta admit, I like it a little better my way.
….and I also feel like it is really important to cook it in a Bundt Pan.
One of the most important steps in this recipe is freezing the cake (in the pan) immediately after removing it from the oven. I put a hot pad down in my freezer so the hot pan won’t defrost anything.
It looks like this when I take it out. Run a knife along the edges and around the center tube before turning it out onto your cake stand or plate.
