Description
A delightful and aromatic cake combining the rich taste of butter and the sweet warmth of cinnamon, perfect for breakfast or dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup sour cream
- ½ cup chopped walnuts (optional)
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar + 2 tsp ground cinnamon (for the swirl)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your Bundt pan with butter or non-stick spray.
- Cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition and including the vanilla extract.
- Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and baking powder in a separate bowl.
- Gradually alternate adding the dry ingredients and sour cream to the creamed mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Pour half of the batter into the greased Bundt pan, sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over it, and add walnuts if desired. Top with the remaining batter.
- Swirl the batter gently with a knife or skewer to create a ribbon effect.
- Bake for about 45-50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For a fancier presentation, dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with cream cheese frosting before serving. Pairs wonderfully with coffee or tea.
