Dette Gresskar-banankake is a super-simple Fall cake recipe made with wholesome plant-based ingredients in mindre enn 45 minutter with a soft, moist crumb and a light and sweet frosting.
I love making super-simple baking recipes. Things that don’t require many ingredients, don’t require hours of prep and yet taste absolutely delicious. With the fall season approaching, I do just that on everything pumpkin like I did for my Gresskarbiter, Gresskar-donuthulleller Gresskarbrød med 5 ingredienser.

Ingredienser og erstatninger
- All-purpose mel – 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 glutenfri konverteringsguide.
- Lett olivenolje – Choose a light olive oil for its neutral flavor. Canola oil, melted coconut oil, or any neutral vegetable oil can be used as alternatives.
- Gresskarpuré – Use canned pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling) or hjemmelaget gresskarpuré.
- Most banan – Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor and natural sweetness.
- Brunt sukker – Light or dark brown sugar works well. Coconut sugar can be used for a less refined option.
- Gresskarkrydder – Bruk en ferdiglaget gresskarkrydderblanding eller lag din egen med kanel, ingefær, muskatnøtt og nellik.
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.

Rør røren med en silikonspade til den er godt blandet.

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 Vegansk vaniljeglasur.

Spread the frosting on top of the baked cake and add fresh banana slices.
Carines baketips
- Ensure your bananas are very ripe for maximum sweetness and easy mashing.
- Ikke bland røren for mye 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.
- To enhance the flavor, try toasting the pumpkin spices in a dry pan before adding them to the batter.
- For ekstra tekstur, 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.
- La kaken avkjøles helt før glasur for å hindre at glasuren smelter.
- Denne kaken fryses godt. 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.







Hi can I make this into muffins ?
Sure, it will probably bake faster, around 25-35 minutes.

Takk skal du ha !
Kan jeg bruke glutenfritt mel?
I haven’t tried this option, I can’t guarantee it will come out great.
Fantastic!! Thank you!!
I really love this cake! So, so good!
Excellent!I wouldn’t change a thing—was devoured…didn’t last on this household more than 24 hours LOL.. So so so good-husband and son left me a few crumbs and they were delicious 🙂 Will make again and again! Thanks!
can all purpose flour be swapped for rice flour
I don’t think it would work, sorry!
I make so many recipes from various blog sites and NEVER leave a comment. This cake is an exception because I made it yesterday and OMG. It’s sooooo good. Way better than I expected. The texture of the cake is perfection- not too light, not too dense and not oily at all. I also made the vanilla frosting (with grass fed butter in place of vegan) and added some cardamom spice. For being a home filled with chocolate dessert lovers only, this cake shocked us all. Highly recommend! Thank you so so much for sharing!
Owww, thank you so much Christy!!!
