Ingredients

Scale

For the Cake:

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened

  • 1½ cups granulated sugar

  • 3 large eggs

  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

  • 2½ cups all-purpose flour

  • 1½ teaspoons baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 1 cup sour cream

For the Cinnamon Swirl:

  • ½ cup light brown sugar

  • 1½ teaspoons ground cinnamon

For the Glaze (optional):

  • 1 cup powdered sugar

  • 12 tablespoons milk

  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a Bundt pan.

  • Mix cinnamon swirl ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.

  • In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla.

  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add to wet mixture in 3 parts, alternating with sour cream.

  • Pour half the batter into the Bundt pan. Sprinkle cinnamon swirl evenly. Top with remaining batter.

  • Bake for 45–55 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool 15 minutes, then invert onto a rack.

  • When fully cool, drizzle with glaze if desired.

Notes

  • Use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream if preferred.

  • Add nuts or chocolate chips to the swirl for extra flair.

  • Store covered at room temp for 3 days or freeze up to 2 months.
