At a glance
This impressive bundt cake starts the day before with a banana infusion that infuses cream with intense flavor — no chunks needed. On baking day, you'll create homemade cake flour and work with room-temperature ingredients to build a velvety batter that bakes for about an hour, requiring a foil cover midway to keep the top from browning too fast. The result is a showstopper dessert with a crispy cane sugar crust and impossibly tender crumb that melts on your tongue.

Making the banana infusion
The day before, slice the bananas into rounds. Heat the cream with vanilla and a pinch of salt to 80°C, pour it over the bananas, and once cooled, refrigerate. This infusion gives the batter an intense banana flavour without any fruit chunks.

Day two - Bringing ingredients to room temperature
Take the eggs, butter and banana cream out of the fridge in good time. All the ingredients need to reach around 23°C. This stops the emulsion from splitting and keeps the batter smooth and light.

Preparing the flour
Mix the flour with the starch and sift the whole mixture through a fine sieve at least three times. This simple step aerates the ingredients and forms the base for a homemade cake flour that gives the bundt cake a wonderfully light, fluffy texture.
