Slow Cooker Chocolate Banana Cake

Finding uses for ripe bananas is always a fun excuse for getting creative in the kitchen. And while I love a good banana bread as much as the next guy I wanted to make a cake.

Looking through my pantry I found that I had a box of devil’s food cake mix and decided to combine the rich moist chocolate cake with some mashed bananas for a chocolate/banana flavor combo.

And of course I decided to bake the cake in my slow cooker because…well because this is a Crock-Pot recipes blog.

I know you could just bake the cake in the oven (and if you are going to do that just follow the baking instructions on the box of cake mix). But to be honest some folks don’t have an oven and a crockpot is all they have to cook in.

For me though the benefits of baking in my slow cooker is that I don’t have to heat up the oven, which in turns heats up my kitchen and house. And in the hot days of summer that sure is a blessing to be able to bake a cake, use up those brown bananas and end up with a tasty dessert for my family!

It’s a yummy win-win for me!

Recipe Notes

I like to serve this cake dusted with a little bit of powdered sugar before serving. But you can also frost the cake with your favorite frosting (chocolate frosting is great!) or top your cake with fresh fruit such as sliced strawberries.
