How to Make Ginger Banana Party Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan.
  2. In a large bowl, mash 2 ripe bananas with 1/2 cup (113g) softened unsalted butter until creamy.
  3. Add 2 large eggs and 1/4 cup (60ml) water. Beat well until combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups (180g) all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Stir in 1/2 cup (60g) chopped walnuts or pecans and 1/4 cup (30g) raisins.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and spread evenly.
  8. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the cake cool in the pan for 5 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. While the cake cools, prepare the frosting:
  11. **Banana & Mock-Chocolate Frosting:** In a blender or food processor, combine 1 ripe banana, 2 tablespoons (30g) unsweetened cocoa powder, 4 tablespoons (60g) softened unsalted butter, and 2 tablespoons (30ml) milk. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  12. Once the cake is completely cool, frost generously with the banana frosting.
  13. Sprinkle with extra chopped pecans and raisins for added flair.
