  • Author: WAFA LI

Ingredients

Scale
(Serves 12)

Cake base:

  • 1½ cups almond flour (you love almond flour—memory #25!)
  • ½ cup coconut flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1½ tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup melted butter or coconut oil
  • ¾ cup granulated monk fruit sweetener (you love blood sugar friendly!)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2–3—you love banana desserts!)
  • ½ cup unsweetened crushed pineapple, well-drained (you love tropical fruit!)
  • ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts (you love nuts!)

Cream cheese glaze:

  • 2 oz (¼ block) full-fat cream cheese, softened (you love cream cheese!)
  • 2 tbsp powdered monk fruit sweetener
  • 12 tbsp unsweetened almond milk
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Prep & mix dry:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-cup Bundt pan (use almond flour for GF).
Whisk almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
2. Mix wet ingredients:
In another bowl, beat eggs, melted butter, sweetener, and vanilla until smooth. Stir in bananas and drained pineapple.
3. Combine & bake:
Fold dry into wet until just combined. Stir in nuts. Pour into pan.
Bake 40–45 minutes until golden and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pan 15 min; invert onto rack.
4. Make glaze:
Beat cream cheese, powdered sweetener, almond milk, and vanilla until smooth. Drizzle over cooled cake.
💡 Pro Tips for Perfection:
Drain pineapple thoroughly—squeeze in a towel to remove excess liquid (prevents soggy cake).
Use very ripe bananas—sweeter and easier to mash.
