Ingredients

  • 2 cups (about 6 medium) ripe bananas, mashed
  • 4 large eggs
  • ½ tsp pure vanilla extract
  • ⅔ cup canola oil
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1 (3.5 ounce) box instant vanilla pudding
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup sweetened or unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chunks or chips

Cream Cheese Frosting (Makes 2 cups)

  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • ¼ cup butter, softened
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 3 cups powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 Tbsp milk

Instructions

  • Preheat oven 325°F and grease pan well with cooking spray; set aside. In a large bowl, lightly whisk the eggs, then combine bananas, vanilla extract, and oil. In a separate large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, pudding mix, baking soda, and salt. Mix the dry ingredients into the liquid ingredients with a rubber spatula; mix until just combined.
  • Fold in the coconut and chocolate chunks. Pour into prepared pan. Bake for about 1 hour 15 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack before removing from pan. Remove the cake from the bundt pan; cool for 1 hour before frosting or serve without frosting. (To cool quickly, place cake on wire rack in the refrigerator for 25-30 minutes ).
  • Make the Cream Cheese Frosting: Using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment or a handheld mixer and a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Add 2 cups powdered sugar; beat together well. Gradually add the remaining 1 cup and 1 Tbsp milk or a little more to reach a spreading consistency.
  • Spread the frosting just over the top or over the top and sides. Sprinkle with chocolate sprinkles or chocolate shavings. Store covered at room temperature for up to 3 days if unfrosted Banana Bundt Cake or refrigerate frosted Banana Bundt Cake for up to 1 week.
