Banana Mini Bundt Cakes with Chocolate Glaze.

Banana coconut mini bundt cakes are a decadent little dessert to serve at your next party! These little cakes look fancy, but are a cinch to make. A rich chocolate glaze is the finishing touch on this simple vegan dessert.

No matter what food allergies you deal with, there comes a time when you see something you’d like to eat, and you just can’t.

Whether it’s peanut butter cups, or a big ice cream sundae from the local ice cream shop, or something else, it’s easy to feel left out.

For my family, there have definitely been times when we’ve admired the fancy little pastries and cakes in a bakery window, and felt a bit sad that we couldn’t eat them. And it’s okay to feel a bit sad for the moment.

But, even though they look delicious, I know that often the homemade version is the best version of those treats. So we feel sad for a minute, then we head home and bake our own delectable allergy friendly desserts.

If you ever feel the same way, you may want to try these mini banana bundt cakes.

These chocolate glazed banana cakes are the perfect dessert if you have a celebration coming up. They’re cute, easy to make, and they do look elegant, especially if you place each one on a doily. If you are in a holiday mood, try this gingerbread version.

We always have tons of overripe bananas at our house, and these cakes were a great way to use some up! If you find yourself in the same boat, you may want to try these chocolate chip banana cookies, frozen chocolate banana bites, or this small double layer banana cake.

Ingredient Notes

• Gluten Free Flour Blend – I like my own homemade gluten free flour blend. It’s free of gums, and it gives these cakes a nice, light texture. You can try other brands like Gluten Free 123 or Living Now Foods Gluten Free All Purpose Flour as well.
• Bananas – Using very ripe bananas gives these cakes a great flavor and texture. You can use bananas that are not quite as ripe if you like, but you may want to place them in a bowl and microwave them for about 30 seconds to soften them up a little bit before mashing them.
