  • Banana
  • 3 large eggs
  • Water
  • Vegetable Oil

How to Make Banana Pudding Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.
  2. In a large bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until mostly smooth.
  3. Add the sugar, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Beat with an electric mixer until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Fold in the pudding mix until evenly distributed.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. (Optional) While the cake cools, prepare the glaze: Whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar with 2-4 tablespoons milk until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled cake.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
