How to Make Simple Orange Banana Bundt Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour a bundt pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon baking soda.
- Cut in ½ cup shortening using a pastry blender or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Zest the rind of ½ an orange and add it to the dry ingredients.
- Juice the orange and add enough milk to measure 1 cup of liquid. (Pulp is welcome!)
- Pulse the orange pulp in a blender until slightly broken down and stir it into the flour mixture.
- Add 2 large eggs to the wet ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined.
- Add 2 ripe bananas, sliced, and gently fold into the batter.
- Pour half of the batter into the prepared bundt pan. (Optional: Sprinkle with ½ cup chopped nuts and ½ cup chopped cherries.)
- Pour remaining batter over the nuts and cherries (if using).
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the cake springs back when lightly touched.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate.
- Serve plain, or drizzle with your favorite glaze or frosting!
