🍰 Classic Vanilla Bundt Cake
Ingredients:
For the cake:
-
3 cups (360g) all-purpose flour
-
2 tsp baking powder
-
½ tsp baking soda
-
1 tsp salt
-
1 cup (226g) unsalted butter, softened
-
2 cups (400g) granulated sugar
-
4 large eggs, room temperature
-
1 tbsp vanilla extract
-
1 cup (240ml) sour cream or Greek yogurt
-
½ cup (120ml) whole milk
Optional glaze:
-
1 cup (120g) powdered sugar
-
2–3 tbsp milk or lemon juice
-
½ tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions:
-
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10–12 cup Bundt pan thoroughly.
-
Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
-
Cream butter and sugar: In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar together with a mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 3–5 minutes).
-
Add eggs: Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Alternate wet and dry: Add the dry ingredients in 3 parts, alternating with the sour cream and milk. Start and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined—don’t overmix.
-
Bake: Pour batter into the prepared Bundt pan and smooth the top. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Cool: Let the cake cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Optional glaze: Mix powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk/lemon juice until smooth. Drizzle over cooled cake.
