Dark Chocolate Mini Bundt Cakes

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

These decadent mini dark chocolate bundt cakes are vegan and paleo topped with a sweet berry glaze. Perfect mother’s day or spring treat!

Dark Chocolate Mini Bundt Cakes (vegan + paleo)

Here’s the thing about mini bundt cakes: They’re bigger than a cupcake but still count as “single-serve”. They bake faster and fluffier than a whole non-mini cake. They are exceptionally glaze-able, that pool in the center is a very sweet bonus. They are cute and perfect for spring or mother’s day or tuesday or any day. That might be more than one thing, but I just love them a lot a lot.

This particular mini bundt moment is a very decadent one. Melted dark chocolate in the batter makes them super (sorry in advance) moist, but not in the mushy fudgy sort of way. They still fluffy too. This cake texture might be the most reminiscent of the freakishly perfect boxed cake memories of my childhood I’ve ever pulled off vegan and grain-free, the crumb is just my favorite thing.

Chocolate Mini Bundt Cake Ingredients

Besides a whole bar of dark chocolate melted and mixed in, we are workign with:

  • Applesauce. Or pumpkin puree would be a okay. Mashed banana even if you feel so inclined, although may not turn out quite AS fluffy. But still yum.
  • Almond butter. Or your favorite nut/seed butter.
  • Maple syrup. Or agave or honey. Liquid sweetener of choice. You get me.
  • Dark chocolate. And a high quality variety please. Chips will work, or chop up an entire bar. Personally I used Hu’s Cashew Butter Raspberry bar and 11/10 recommend that move.
  • Coconut flour. You may not always love it, but you will absolutely love it here.
  • Cocoa powder. The second half of our dry ingredient mix, equal parts as the coconut flour.
  • Baking soda and salt.

Dairy-Free Raspberry Glaze

You have two options here: coconut butter or powdered sugar.

Coconut butter glaze. This is the paleo and refined sugar free path, but its a little trickier to get the consistency right. Coconut butter can be a bit finicky when it comes to temperature, so make sure all your ingredients are room temp or warmer before mixing. If it clumps up, slowly add non-dairy milk and just keep whisking. Its quite dreamy when you get it right.

Powdered sugar glaze. This is the easier option, just raspberry puree and powdered sugar. Much sweeter, much less finicky, but the choice is yours.

Tips For The Best Mini Chocolate Bundt Cakes

  1. Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature. When you are working with dark chocolate in the batter, any chilly ingredients will make the batter seize up and hard to mix.
  2. Grease your bundt pans REALLY well. And let them cool for at least 30 minutes before flipping them out to avoid any sticking and cake splitting.
  3. Toothpick test them or gently press the middles to make sure they’re done. Any mushy feeling and leave them another 5 minutes.
  4. The cake is so rich you don’t even need the glaze. So good on it’s own. So good with ice cream on top too.

      Absolutely! You can bake them as cupcakes, you will probably get 6-8. The bake time might be a bit less, check them around 25 minutes. Hope you enjoy Anna!

        Yay! Thank you. I have basically no more room to buy anymore cake tins (at least not right now), especially after buying an 11” spring form tin at the weekend 😂. The plan is to become professional baker so when I have my own shop I can have ALL THE CAKE TINS!!! (And a vitamix… on the work budget right?!)

      Hmm coconut butter would work! Or you can try coconut oil (reduce the amount though, try 1/3 cup) but I can’t guarantee it will come out as well

    Can you confirm that measurement for the coconut flour? It says “3 tbsp cup (23g) coconut flour” which I’m assuming is just 3 tbsp but with coconut flour being so unique I want to make sure. Thanks!

      May 13, 2021 at 12:24 pm

      Yep 3 tbsp! Which is 23g, the “cup” part is a typo. Sorry for the confusion Tiffany 🙂

    Hi,
    The cake part was pretty good. It did seem a bit dry, maybe because I reduced the maple syrup to 1/4 cup and/or used 1/4 cup chocolate chips? I don’t have a scale and the internet was giving me mixed signals.

    However, my biggest issue is with the glaze. The coconut butter seems to overwhelm the raspberries and powdered sugar is not an option. I do like the fruit element but have been thinking of using coconut milk with either peanut butter or chocolate. Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Rose

      The dryness of the cake was almost certainly due to the reduced maple syrup and chocolate chips. Both of those add a lot of moisture and richness, I recommend using the amounts listed. 2oz chocolate will be about 1/3 cup

      Totally get that, coconut butter is a unique flavor that not everyone loves. This is a peanut butter glaze that I really like: https://feastingonfruit.com/peanut-butter-banana-bundt-cake/#tasty-recipes-17639-jump-target Or for a chocolate option, maybe try this: https://feastingonfruit.com/copycat-vegan-hostess-cupcakes/

        I love how you get back so quickly.

        This is for a baby shower and the mother-to-be has gestational diabetes. So am trying to keep it as low in sugars as possible. I will use 1/3 cup chocolate chips.

        I will check out your glazes. I made a peanut butter one with coconut milk and it was decent.

        Thanks for all your help.

          You could use a slightly darker % chocolate to keep the sugar down too! I imagine PB + coconut milk could make a great glaze, I just don’t have one personally to point you too. Good luck!

Some recipes are worth splurging on dairy-free whi Some recipes are worth splurging on dairy-free white chocolate and this is DEFINITELY one of them🤎🤍 That decadent chocolate + peanut butter + coconut middle 1000% deserves the creamy coating and sprinkle finish, trust me💗 Recipe below…

Vegan White Chocolate Valentine’s Truffles
-1 package @emmysorganics Dark Cacao Coconut Cookies
-1/4 cup (65g) almond or peanut butter
-1/3 cup (60g) dark chocolate chips, melted
-Pinch of salt
-1/2 tsp vanilla extract
-8oz vegan white chocolate.
-Optional: natural pink sprinkles + 1/4 cup more melted dark chocolate for topping

Melt the white chocolate. Pour a small spoonful into the bottom of each cavity of the mold, and tilt to coat the bottom and up the sides of each heart. Freeze. Set aside the remaining white chocolate. Melt the dark chocolate chips. In a food processor combine the Dark Cacao Coconut Cookies, almond/peanut butter, melted chocolate, salt, and vanilla. Process until smooth, it should be the consistency of a thick brownie batter. Place about 2 tsps of the chocolate mixture into each heart and press to flatten. Cover with remaining melted white chocolate. Chill until chocolate is set. Carefully remove from the molds. Optionally drizzle with more dark chocolate and top with sprinkles. Enjoy!

Its #nationalmedjooldateday 🥳🥳 I have wayyyy Its #nationalmedjooldateday 🥳🥳 I have wayyyyyy too many medjool recipes on the blog to mention, so I picked this friday-easy, highly-fudgy, personal fave: No-Bake Vegan Chocolate Cream Pie!

Four ingredient chocolate crumb crust. Three ingredient date-sweetened cream filling. Its truly TOO simple and TOO good❤️

Crust
-2 cups almonds (or nuts of choice)
-1/2 cup cocoa powder
-1/2 tsp salt
-1/4 cup coconut oil
Filling
-12oz unsweetened chocolate, melted
-3 cups non-dairy milk 
-1 cup (10-12) pitted medjool dates (@ndmedjooldates are my favorite!)

Blend almonds, cocoa powder, and salt. Add the coconut oil. Blend until the texture is moist and crumbly. Press into the bottom of a pie pan and up the sides.

Blend the milk and dates on high until very smooth. Add melted chocolate and blend until combined. Pour into the crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate (creamier more like a pudding/mud pie) or freeze (firmer texture) overnight, or for at least 8 hours. Slice and enjoy!

Is it even christmas time without a gingerbread cu Is it even christmas time without a gingerbread cutout cookie + sprinkles moment??🎄

This is my fave vegan and paleo recipe—super moist and tender with almond flour, heavy on the molasses, with a pop of lemon, and they’re oil-free!

Ingredients
-1/2 cup coconut sugar
-1/4 cup almond butter (or any nut/seed butter)
-1/4 cup molasses
-1 tbsp lemon juice
-2 tsps ginger
-1 tsp cinnamon
-1/4 tsp cloves
-1/2 tsp baking soda
-1 tsp vanilla extract
-2 cups almond flour (oat flour option linked in my bio!)

Whisk coconut sugar, almond butter, molasses, and lemon juice until combined. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix/knead to form a ball of dough. Roll out the dough to 1/4 inch thickness between two pieces of wax paper. Chill dough flat for 30 minutes. Cutout cookies with a cookie cutter, then use a spatula to carefully transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10 minutes at 350F or until golden around the edges. You can re-roll/cut the excess dough. Cool completely. Decorate (I used melted coconut butter + matcha for the “glaze”) and enjoy!
