Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- 4 eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2-3 tbsp milk
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and grease a bundt pan with butter and flour.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, alternating with sour cream. Mix until well combined.
- In a small bowl, mix together cinnamon and nuts. Pour half of the batter into the prepared bundt pan and sprinkle half of the cinnamon-nut mixture on top. Repeat with the remaining batter and cinnamon-nut mixture.
- Bake 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, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and milk to create a glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake before serving.
