Ingredients

Scale

For the Cake:

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 3/4 tsp baking powder

  • 1/4 tsp baking soda

  • 3/4 tsp salt

  • 10 Tbsp unsalted butter, at room temperature

  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar

  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature

  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1 cup buttermilk, at room temperature

For the Ribbon:

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar

  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon

For the Topping:

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 tsp cinnamon

  • 2 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven and prepare the Bundt pan:
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a Bundt pan or use a non-stick spray with flour to prevent the cake from sticking.

  2. Mix dry ingredients for the cake:
    In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

  3. Cream the butter and sugar:
    In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. Add eggs and vanilla:
    Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

  5. Alternate adding dry ingredients and buttermilk:
    Gradually add the dry ingredients in three batches, alternating with the buttermilk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.

  6. Prepare the ribbon:
    In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon for the ribbon.

  7. Assemble the cake:
    Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared Bundt pan. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar ribbon mixture evenly over the batter. Add the remaining cake batter on top and then sprinkle with the remaining ribbon mixture.

  8. Swirl the batter:
    Use a butter knife to gently swirl the cinnamon-sugar mixture through the cake batter, creating a marbled effect.

  9. Bake the cake:
    Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

  10. Prepare the topping:
    In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and cinnamon for the topping. Once the cake is cooled, brush the top with melted butter and sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar topping over the cake.

Notes

  • If you prefer a lighter texture, you can sift the dry ingredients together before adding them to the batter.

  • You can drizzle a simple glaze over the top for an extra touch of sweetness if desired.
