This Cinnamon Swirl Bundt Cake is the perfect combination of moist cake and aromatic cinnamon swirl. Simple to make, with a rich, buttery flavor and a deliciously sweet cinnamon swirl, it’s a crowd-pleaser for any occasion. Perfect for family gatherings or a sweet treat with coffee!


Ingredients

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp baking powder

1 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)

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 swirl)


Instructions

Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a Bundt pan with butter or non-stick spray.

Cream the Butter and Sugar:
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Prepare the Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and baking powder.

Combine the Ingredients:
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with sour cream. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.

Assemble the Cake:
Layer half of the batter into the greased Bundt pan. In a small bowl, mix the ⅓ cup granulated sugar and cinnamon together for the swirl. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the batter. Add the remaining batter on top, then sprinkle with the rest of the cinnamon-sugar. Gently swirl the batter with a knife to create the cinnamon swirl.

Bake:
Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Cool and Invert:
Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate. Allow to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

Don’t overmix the batter to ensure the cake remains light and fluffy.

For added flavor and texture, feel free to customize with chopped nuts or fruit mixed into the batter.

Allow the cake to cool completely before slicing to ensure clean cuts.
