⭐TIP
All ovens vary, so you should always check the cake about 10 minutes before it’s set to be done and see how it’s baking. People comment that it only took 35 minutes, so it’s best to always check.
Thank you for such a
beautifully basic cake recipe! i made this for staff coffee break at a very busy bakery for a group of very particular pastry chefs who are always tired of overly sweet and fancy desserts – everybody loved it, this is now a weekly tradition. I wouldn’t change at thing, used walnuts one week and pecans the next. Thanks again!

Perfect! Thanks for sharing
This is a great recipe. Nice and moist with lots of banana flavor. Instead of adding nuts, I added chocolate chips. I think next time, just to change it up, I’ll try adding 1/4 cup cocoa powder and nuts. Thanks for another great recipe!
You’re very welcome!

You are so welcome! We are thrilled you enjoy this delicious cake!
Excellent cake!
Very moist and very tasty
I too only used 3/4 cup sugar and it was still very good
This was easy to make and very good! I have a 12 cavity mini bundt cake pan. Any ideas on adapting this recipe for utilizing that pan? Thank you.
Great recipe. It’s actually done in 35 minutes though. So I recommend check it at 35 minutes doing the toothpick test!
Great recipe! Followed recipe exactly and ended up with enough to make 3 “cupcakes” for just a taste before glazing and serving after dinner! Delicious!!
I made the banana and nuts cake and hope it comes out really good. I did not put as much sugar as you asked, I am diabetic and put about 3/4 organic sugar hoping that it will not put so much calories and makes it sweet cause the bananas are sweet as it is. I put walnut instead of pecan. I had made a
cake with pecan and I usually give half or sugar and her family really liked it. I licked my finger when I transfered the cake in the form and it tasted good. I think it will a successful one. I will be using the icing sugar and put some walnuts like inside the cake. I love baking and I am sure it will come out delicious.
This banana bundt cake was delicious! I followed the recipe except for substituting greek yogurt for the sour cream and I had some maraschino cherries to use up, so I threw them in, along with the crushed walnuts. The cake was not too sweet and very flavourful. The texture was perfect. It was moist but still fluffy. It won’t last long around here. Thanks for the recipe.

I was hoping for another slice but came home to find that my dog had eaten both Bundt cakes off the cutting board as they cooled (I split the recipe into two 3 cup Bundt pans….could have made 3 but I filled the pans quite full).
OH NO!! This sounds like something my dog would do!
Super soft and light! Added some dark chocolate chips instead of the nuts. Turned out great! Thank you!

I drizzled the cake with a homemade caramel sauce.
I made two cakes for our family reunion . They are in the oven now, I added two teaspoons of banana extract in addition to the vanilla extract . Added a sliced banana and gently mixed it in before adding batter to bundt pan. Going to put a camel glaze on top! Can’t wait to serve them! I’m sure they will be wonderful. Thank you for sharing your recipes.

Instead of using sour cream, could we use Greek yogurt???
I would think you could but I have not tried it.
