Instructions

Step-by-Step Instructions for Cinnamon Swirl Bundt Cake

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add eggs one at a time, beating well, and then incorporate vanilla extract.
  • Gradually add dry ingredients, alternating with sour cream and milk, starting and ending with flour.
  • In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, cinnamon, and chopped pecans for the swirl.
  • Pour half of the batter into the prepared Bundt pan, sprinkle with the cinnamon swirl mixture, and add remaining batter.
  • Gently swirl through the batter to marble the cinnamon mixture without fully incorporating it.
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
