BANANA-NUT BUTTERMILK BUNDT® CAKE



Banana-Nut Buttermilk Bundt® Cake image

This Bundt® cake has a hint of spice with a bit of crunch to the outside and a light texture on the inside and is made with buttermilk. Not overly sweet, so I prefer it without frosting. A nice replacement for banana bread, very moist. May add frosting or powdered sugar for presentation but this cake is excellent by itself.

Categories     Cake     Rum     Fruit     Dessert     Bake     Cream Cheese     Banana     Coconut     Spring     Gourmet     Kidney Friendly     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 22

For cake layer
1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup cake flour (not self-rising)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1/2 cup mashed banana (about 1 large)
3 tablespoons crème fraîche or sour cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
For rum syrup
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 tablespoons dark rum
For frosting
1/2 pound cream cheese, softened
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
1 teaspoon vanilla
2/3 cup crisp banana chips

Steps:

  • Make cake layer:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter an 8-inch square, 2-inch deep baking pan and line bottom with wax paper. Butter paper and dust with flour, knocking out excess flour.
  • On a baking sheet toast coconut in the middle of the oven, stirring once, until golden, about 6 minutes.
  • Into a bowl sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In a small bowl whisk together eggs, bananas, crème fraîche or sour cream, and vanilla.
  • In a bowl of a standing electric mixer beat together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in flour and egg mixtures alternately, beginning and ending with flour mixture and beating after each addition until batter is smooth, and fold in coconut.
  • Turn batter into pan, smoothing top, and bake in middle of oven until a tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool cake in pan on rack 10 minutes. Run a thin knife around edges of pan and invert cake onto rack. Remove wax paper carefully and cool cake completely. Cake layer may be made 3 days ahead and chilled, wrapped in plastic wrap and foil.
  • Make syrup:
  • In a small saucepan bring water and sugar to a boil over moderate heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved, and simmer 1 minute. Stir in rum and simmer 1 minute. Cool syrup completely. Syrup may be made 3 days ahead and chilled, covered.
  • Make frosting:
  • In a bowl with an electric mixer beat together cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy. Add confectioners' sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition, and beat in vanilla and pinch salt. In a food processor coarsely grind banana chips and stir into frosting.
  • With serrated knife halve cake layer horizontally and with pastry brush dab cut sides with rum syrup, using it all. Spread half of frosting on cut side of bottom layer and arrange top layer, cut side down, on frosting. Spread remaining frosting on top of cake. Cake may be assembled 3 hours ahead and chilled, covered with an overturned bowl or in a cake keeper.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas. This will give the cake a sweeter, more intense banana flavor. Ripe bananas also have a softer texture, which makes them easier to mash.
  • Toast the walnuts. This will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy. To toast the walnuts, spread them on a baking sheet and bake them at 350°F for 5-7 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixed batter will make the cake tough. Mix the batter only until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before inverting it onto a serving plate. This will help prevent the cake from breaking.

Conclusion:

Banana Walnut Crunch Bundt Cake is a delicious and easy-to-make cake that is perfect for any occasion. The cake is moist and flavorful, with a crunchy walnut topping. It is also very versatile, and can be served with a variety of toppings, such as whipped cream, ice cream, or fruit.
