This Chocolate Avocado Bundt Cake is a moist, rich, and healthier twist on classic chocolate cake. Avocado replaces oil or butter, adding healthy fats and a velvety texture without overpowering the flavor. It’s perfect for guilt-free indulgence and special occasions alike.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (or whole wheat pastry flour)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 ripe avocado, mashed (about 1/2 cup)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar or coconut sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or dairy-free alternative
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup brewed coffee (optional)
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips or chopped chocolate (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt cake pan thoroughly.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the mashed avocado and sugar until smooth. Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Stir in the yogurt, milk, vanilla extract, and brewed coffee (if using).
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the chocolate chips or chopped chocolate if using.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for 45–50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use a gluten-free 1:1 flour blend for a gluten-free version.
  • Replace eggs with flax eggs and use plant-based yogurt/milk for a vegan cake.
  • Swap sugar with coconut sugar or erythritol for lower sugar content.
  • Add a drizzle of chocolate glaze or dust with powdered sugar for a finished look.
  • To freeze, wrap slices individually and store up to 3 months.
