how to make Banana Bundt Cake

Ingredients:

One third cup shortening
One and one fourth cups sugar
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
One and one fourth cups mashed ripe bananas (about 3 medium)
2 cups all-purpose flour
One and one fourth teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
One half teaspoon salt
1 cup sour cream
Three fourths cup chopped walnuts
Optional: Whipped cream and sliced bananas

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
Grease and flour a 10-inch fluted tube pan.
In a large bowl, cream the shortening and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 5 to 7 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Beat in the vanilla extract.
Add the mashed bananas and mix well.
In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture alternately with the sour cream, stirring just until combined.
Stir in the chopped walnuts.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
Bake for 50 to 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool the cake for 10 minutes before removing it from the pan. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
If desired, serve with whipped cream and additional sliced bananas.

how to serve Banana Bundt Cake

Serve Banana Bundt Cake as a lovely dessert after dinner, or enjoy a slice with your morning coffee or tea. For added flavor, top the cake with whipped cream and sliced bananas. It can be served warm or at room temperature.

how to store Banana Bundt Cake

To store Banana Bundt Cake, keep it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you want to keep it longer, you can refrigerate it for about a week. To freeze, wrap the cake tightly in plastic wrap and aluminum foil, and it will stay good for up to 3 months.

tips to make Banana Bundt Cake

Use overripe bananas for the best flavor and sweetness.
Make sure your ingredients are at room temperature for optimal mixing.
Don’t overmix the batter; mix just until combined to keep the cake tender.
Greasing and flouring the pan well ensures an easy release after baking.

variation

You can add chocolate chips or dried fruit to the batter for a different twist. If you don’t have walnuts, try using pecans or almonds instead.
