How to Make Banana Cinnamon Bundt Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 12-cup bundt cake pan.
- In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, water, mashed bananas, melted butter, cinnamon, and eggs.
- Beat on low speed with an electric mixer for 30 seconds.
- Increase speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Gently stir in the chopped walnuts.
- Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan.
- Bake for 43-53 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
- Invert the cake onto a wire rack or heatproof serving plate to cool completely.
- Prepare the cinnamon glaze while the cake cools (see glaze instructions below).
- Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the cinnamon glaze evenly over the top.
- Sprinkle with extra cinnamon for a beautiful finish.
- **Cinnamon Glaze:**
- In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, melted butter, milk, and cinnamon until smooth and pourable. Add more milk, a teaspoon at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
