Banana Strawberry Bundt Cake

A moist cake that you will love.

I bought a Bundt pan a few years ago and was quite excited to finally own one of these pans. Now that the kids are moving out it has been a while since I have baked anything in this Bundt pan, it makes a little too much cake for us now.

But since we had family stopping by these past weeks I took the opportunity to use it. I love the way a Bundt cake looks; I think it looks more elegant than one baked in a regular old cake pan.

We had some bananas that were getting overly ripe and I decided to put them to good use instead of throwing them away. And for good measure I decided to add some strawberries to the mix along with a little almond extract… I love this stuff.

I topped the cake off with a little brown butter frosting. The combination of banana and strawberries is always a good thing. Plus I love how the bananas make the cake so moist.

This is a simple cake that makes a wonderful dessert.

Ingredients:
Cake-
1/3 cup shortening
1 14 cup sugar
2 eggs
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1 1/4 cups mashed ripe bananas
1/2 cup mashed strawberries
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup sour cream

4 tablespoons butter
2 cups powder sugar
1/4 teaspoon almond extract

5. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from the pan to a wire rack to cool completely.
Frosting-
1. Add the butter to a small sauce pan. Over medium heat melt the butter; continue cooking stirring constantly until butter is a golden brown. Watch closely so it doesn’t burn.

    I love my bundt pan, I use it all the time. So much easier than layered cakes and just as pretty.
    What a great idea, bananas and strawberries in a bundt cake, and the frosting is a perfect compliment.
