This One Bowl Banana Bundt Cake with Caramel & Candied Pecans is a delicious spin on a classic banana bread. Most of us have seen and tasted ordinary bundt cake. While there is nothing wrong with a classic cake, I’ve taken it further by adding banana, and topping it with a quick 5 minute, 5 ingredient caramel and candied pecans. Single serving bundt cakes makes for a perfect mid-day coffee break snack or an after dinner dessert. Of course this recipe is vegan!
Can I Use A Different Pan For These Banana Bundt Cakes?
You absolutely can! This recipe is adapted from my Banana Bread recipe which is made in a loaf pan instead of a mini bundt cake pan. You could also make muffins, a cake or even a regular sized bundt cake pan.

How To Make This One Bowl Banana Bundt Cake with Caramel & Candied Pecans
There are three parts in making these mini bundt cakes:
Make The One Bowl Banana Bundt Cake
*In a large mixing bowl, through mash the bananas. Whisk in the oat milk, oil, brown sugar and vanilla.
*Sift in the flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Using a wooden spoon mix until there are no lumps of flour. Do not over mix.
*Pour into mini bundt cake moulds. Bake for about 20-25 mins until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out with just a couple of crumbs.
Make The Candied Pecans
*Set your stove-top to medium heat and using a skillet, combine brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
*Stir and then add water and cook for two minutes until the sugar dissolves. You’ll want to have a bubbling mixture.
*Once it’s bubbling, add in 1 cup of pecans and stir to evenly coat the batch. Cook this for another 2-3 minutes. Remove your pecans from the skillet and spread them evenly onto your parchment paper.
*Before you dive into your pecans, make sure that they’ve cooled completely.

This 5 minute 5 ingredient caramel is perfect to pour over anything and make it taste like magic! With only 5 ingredients its easy to whip up and its refined sugar-free. Pour it on coconut ice cream, parfaits, oatmeal, as a sauce for dessert nachos, over cakes and pancakes.
