Ingredients
Scale
- For the Cake:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- 3 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- For the Topping:
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the sour cream, until just combined.
- In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, chopped nuts, and cinnamon for the topping.
- Pour half of the cake batter into a greased bundt pan, sprinkle half of the topping mixture, then add the remaining batter and top with the rest of the topping.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- This cake can be made a day in advance; store it covered at room temperature.
