Coconut and Banana Mini Bundt Cakes
Background
These coconut and banana mini bundt cakes are soft, naturally sweet and really easy to make. They’re gluten-free, low in added sugar and made with simple ingredients, so they’re a nice option when you want something a bit lighter but still satisfying.
The ripe bananas add natural sweetness and keep the cakes moist, while the coconut flour gives them a gentle, nutty flavour. They’re lovely on their own, but you can always drizzle a little date syrup over the top if you prefer a sweeter finish. Perfect for breakfast, a snack or afternoon tea—and they work just as well baked in an air fryer if you want to make them quickly.
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas
- 1 large egg
- 2 Tbsp cold-pressed rapeseed oil
- ½ cup coconut flour
- ½ cup coconut sugar
- ½ cup gluten-free flour mix (e.g. buckwheat, rice flour)
- 1 cup coconut milk (carton, not canned)
- Juice of 1 lime
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- In a small bowl, mix the coconut milk with the lime juice and set aside for a few minutes.
- Mash or blend the bananas until smooth, then transfer to a mixing bowl. Add the egg and oil and mix well.
- Stir in the coconut flour, coconut sugar and gluten-free flour.
- Pour in the coconut milk mixture and gently mix until you have a smooth, thick but pourable batter. If it feels too thick, add a little more coconut milk.
- Divide the mixture between two small silicone bundt moulds.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes, until golden and set.
- Leave the cakes to rest in their moulds for about 10 minutes, then turn them out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve as they are, or topped with a sprinkle of shredded coconut or a drizzle of date syrup.
