Banana and White Chocolate Party Bundt Cake

This pretty Banana and White Chocolate Party Bundt Cake is a great way of using up any over ripe bananas. Plus its colourful sprinkles and white chocolate topping will make it appealing to kids. 

Regular Mummy Mishaps recipe readers will know that I frequently share bakes on my blog that feature over ripe bananas. Ultimately, I just hate food waste, and bananas that look a little sorry for themselves, always add such natural sweetness and banana flavour to cakes. 

Also, incorporating any fruit or veg into a cake is a sneaky way of getting some extra goodness into my boys!

Obviously this cake is not that healthy by any means, because I have decorated it with some white chocolate and some colourful edible sprinkles.

That is allowed on this occasion though, because I have called it a party cake afterall. 

I love the little brown flecks inside each slice that derives from the bananas. 

 Recipe for Banana and White Chocolate Party  Bundt Cake
Serves 10-12
Ingredients:
200g unsalted butter 
100g caster sugar 
4 eggs 
2 over ripe bananas 
1 tsp vanilla extract 
250g self raising flour
*Decoration*
100g white chocolate, melted 
Edible sprinkles 

Method:
 Pre heat the oven to 180oC / 160oC (fan oven) 
Grease and line a bundt tin - I used a Gugelhupf Tin (roughly 22cm) 
Cream the butter and sugar for a few minutes until creamy, soft and pale. 
Add your bananas, if they are very over ripe they will mash easily when 
beaten with the mixing tool of your cake mixer . Beat the bananas into 
the sugar and butter mixture. 
Add the eggs and the vanilla extract and beat well until smooth
Now add the flour and mix in to combine it well 
Put the batter into the tin and bake in the oven for 30-35 mins until 
cooked right through 
Allow the cake to cool and then remove onto a plate/stand 
Drizzle the melted white chocolate all over the cake and then sprinkle 
some edible sprinkles all over the top
