Banana Hazelnut Bundt Cake
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons chocolate-hazelnut spread such as Nutella or Justin's
- 3 tablespoons room temperature butter
- 1 teaspoon canola oil
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened apple sauce
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar firmly packed
- 2 medium ripe bananas
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cup unbleached cake flour
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 2/3 cup milk
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Mix the chocolate-hazelnut spread with 1 teaspoon oil in a microwave-safe dish and cook for 30 seconds, mixing until completely combined.
- Add the applesauce, butter, brown sugar, and bananas and beat at medium-high speed until thoroughly blended. Then add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each one.
- Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, cocoa powder and salt in a separate bowl and mix thoroughly.
- Add your flour mixture and milk to your banana mixture, stirring until combined. Add mini chocolate chips and swirl throughout your batter.
- Spray your Bundt pan liberally with nonstick cooking spray and fill halfway with batter.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes and invert Bundt pan over cake stand - it should slide right out!
