HOW TO MAKE CINNAMON SWIRL BUNDT CAKE

PREPARATION

  1. Preheat your oven to 170°C / 338°F (top and bottom heat).
  2. Grease your Bundt pan well and dust with flour.

  3. Tap out any excess.

MAKE THE CINNAMON SUGAR FILLING

  1. Mix all ingredients together and set aside.

MAKE THE BATTER

  1. Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
  2. Beat the butter and sugar for about 3 minutes on medium-high speed until light and fluffy.
  3. Add sour cream, heavy cream, and vanilla paste.

  4. Mix until smooth.

  5. Add the eggs one at a time.
  6. Add the flour mixture and mix just until combined (no more than 45 seconds).
  7. Use a spatula to finish mixing gently by hand.

CINNAMON SWIRL MIXTURE

  1. Transfer about one-third of the batter to another bowl.
  2. Add the cinnamon sugar filling.
  3. Stir until smooth and well combined.

LAYERING

  1. Spoon slightly less than one-third of the plain batter into the Bundt pan and smooth the surface.

  2. Spread half of the cinnamon batter on top and smooth.

  3. Layer half of the remaining plain batter over it and smooth again.

  4. Pour the remaining cinnamon batter over the top and smooth.

  5. Finish by spooning the last layer of plain batter into the pan and smooth once more.

  6. Use a fork to swirl the layers into a marble pattern.
  7. Smooth the top again.

BAKE

  1. Bake for 50–55 minutes.
  2. Let the cake cool for 5 minutes, then gently loosen the edges with a knife.
  3. Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan before turning it out onto a cooling rack.

MAKE THE CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

  1. Beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth and fluffy.
  2. Sift in the powdered sugar and beat until creamy.
  3. Add vanilla extract and heavy cream.

  4. Beat until light and fluffy.

  5. If it’s too soft, chill briefly before using.
