This is easy, stress-free fall baking at its finest. My one-bowl banana bundt cake has an abundance of rich banana flavor, is made in a single bowl, and contains half the fat and sugar of a traditional banana cake – yes, I said HALF. (But trust me, you’d never know it!)

When I’m making zucchini cake, it’s because I want cake: fluffy, high, moreish…. and frosting – especially if it’s cream cheese frosting! Too many zucchini cakes come out of the oven looking (and tasting) like zucchini bread dupes, with nuts and maple syrup and a dense texture that isn’t quite what I had in mind when I started. But that ends right here, right now with this recipe.
