מרכיבים ותחליפים
- קמח לכל המטרה – Use plain all-purpose flour. For a whole grain option, you can substitute up to half with whole wheat pastry flour. For a gluten-free version, use my מדריך להמרה ללא גלוטן.
- שמן זית קל – Choose a light olive oil for its neutral flavor. Canola oil, melted coconut oil, or any neutral vegetable oil can be used as alternatives.
- פירה דלעת – Use canned pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling) or מחית דלעת ביתית.
- בננה מעוכה – Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and natural sweetness.
- סוכר חום – Light or dark brown sugar works well. Coconut sugar can be used for a less refined option.
- תבליני דלעת – Use a pre-made pumpkin spice mix or create your own with cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.
How to Make Pumpkin Banana Cake
This is a very easy bread recipe, similar to regular banana bread. I have a full recipe card further down, but here are photos of the key steps.
Mash the ripe bananas in a mixing bowl and add the pure pumpkin puree.
Pour all the other ingredients into the mixing bowl.
Stir the batter with a silicone spatula until it’s well combined.
Transfer the batter to a square pan lined with parchment paper and flatten it.
Bake it for 35 minutes at 350 °F while preparing my ציפוי וניל טבעוני.
Spread the frosting on top of the baked cake and add fresh banana slices.
טיפים לאפייה של קארין
- Ensure your bananas are very ripe for maximum sweetness and easy mashing.
- אל תערבבו את הבלילה יתר על המידה after adding the dry ingredients to avoid a tough cake.
- If you prefer a stronger pumpkin flavor, increase the pumpkin puree to 1 1/4 cups and reduce the mashed banana to 1/2 cup.
- כדי לשפר את הטעם, try toasting the pumpkin spices in a dry pan before adding them to the batter.
- לתוספת מרקם, fold in 1/2 cup of chopped nuts or chocolate chips to the batter before baking.
- Check the cake after 30 minutes to prevent overbaking, as it can dry out quickly.
- יש לתת לעוגה להתקרר לחלוטין לפני הציפוי כדי למנוע מהציפוי להימס.
- העוגה הזו קופאת היטב. Wrap individual slices in plastic wrap and store in a freezer bag for up to 3 months. The best is to freeze it unfrosted though.
how can substitute the banana?
You can’t easily swap banana in this recipe since it’s a banana cake. You could try unsweetened applesauce but I can’t guarantee that the texture will be the same.
this looks delicious. can hemp milk be used for frosting or just use the types that you suggested??
Absolutely, you can use any milk, I like to use almond milk or soy milk.

תודה רבה לך!
Made it today…delicious…thanks for the recipe!
Thank you! that’s amazing.
This was very easy to make. Very warm & comfort tasting. I didn’t have time to make the frosting but others love it plan. I will make this again.
תודה רבה לך!
It’s the banana and the pumpkin I don’t see why you need the oil at all???
Replacing the final amount of liquid oil with even more pumpkin or banana puree will inevitably create a gummy, packed texture due to severe over-hydration of the flour. These purees are high in water and starches, which rapidly encourage the flour proteins (gluten) to form a tight, overly-strong network. Because the recipe already lacks the structure of eggs (all my recipes are egg-free), if you remove the tenderizing interference of oil, there is nothing to prevent the excessive gluten development. It means that the added puree you will add instead of the oil will increases the batter’s total water content significantly, resulting in a heavy mass that cannot effectively hold the air bubbles from leavening agents. It clear, it will be a thick gummy cake that won’t taste good.
Will apple sauce be a good substitute for the oil?.
Not really for this cake, any cake or bread that already use a large amount of wet ingredients like mashed banana and/or pumpkin puree will turn super gummy if you swap the oil.
I’m trying to cut down on sugar,can I make this cake without
I am pretty sure it will work without added sugar. It won’t taste very sweet but if you are happy with that, it’s possible to bake it sugar free.
Looks like a lovely autumn cake!! Can I substitute bananas with sweet potato here?
No, it won’t work very well I am sorry.
This turns out great all the time. I sometimes use baked sweet potato instead of canned pumpkin puree and it works well too!
That sounds like a delicious swap to pumpkin, I must try next time! thanks for baking my recipes.
