Description
Bananas and peanut butter are a great combination – especially in this delicious Banana & Peanut Butter Bundt Cake. It’s simply the best!
Ingredients
For the batter:
9 oz. (250g) very ripe banana, mashed
3.5 oz. (100g) peanut butter* (creamy)
1/2 cup (50g) muscovado sugar*
2 medium eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract*
2 cups (260g) spelt flour*
3.5 oz. (100g) ground almonds
2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
1 cup (240ml) plant-based milk (e.g. oats or soy)
For the glaze:
1 oz. (30g) butter, melted
2.1 oz. (60g) peanut butter* (creamy)
1.4 oz. (40g) maple syrup*
some chopped peanuts (optional)
some mini Reese’s peanut butter cups* (optional)
some cocoa nibs* (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a bundt cake pan* well and dust with some flour. Set aside.
2. Add the bananas to a large bowl and mash. Add the peanut butter, cane sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract and mix until well combined. In a second bowl mix the flour with ground almonds, baking powder, and salt. Add together with the plant-based milk to the large bowl and mix until you got a smooth batter. Transfer to the prepared bundt cake pan, smooth out the top, and bake for 45-50 minutes or until a wooden skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean. Take out of the oven and let cool down in the pan for about 15-20 minutes, then carefully remove and let cool down completely on a wire rack.
3. For the glaze add the butter and peanut butter to a small bowl and melt slowly in the microwave. Add the maple syrup and mix until you get a smooth glaze. The mixture will a bit runny at first, if you let it cool down a bit it will thicken up. Glaze the cooled cake and decorate with some chopped peanuts, some mini peanut butter cups, and cocoa nibs (optional).
