    Is there a sweet bake that everybody likes? Probably not, right?! There is always someone that does not like this or that. Pretty sure though that everything with cinnamon is liked by maaaany people. Must be since there are soo many bakes where cinnamon plays an important part – all over the world and in almost every culture. I am definitely a fan of everything cinnamony ;) There is nothing better than a freshly baked cinnamon roll with cream cheese frosting on top… well almost. There is also this Cinnamon Swirl Bundt Cake – we should not forget about that one ;)

    OK – this Cinnamon Swirl Bundt Cake is not a giant cinnamon roll even though there are similarities. It’s not made with yeast dough, so the typical flavors from cinnamon rolls are not there – but it is still a freaking good cake with nice cinnamon layers and a sweet frosting on top that brings everything together. Not the real deal, but pretty close. If you like cinnamon, you will like this cake ;)

    This cake is definitely less of a hassle compared to actual cinnamon rolls. You don’t have to wait for ages for the dough to rise and rise again – here you just have to mix everything together, create some nice layers within the batter and then it is good to go into the oven. Much less effort and time-consuming.

    I use spelt flour in this bake – this kind of flour is a bit easier to digest for many people than regular all-purpose flour. Let’s say it is a tiny bit healthier than regular wheat flour. If you don’t have it or just don’t want to use it, you can switch back to regular a/p flour – no other adjustments needed. Same for the muscovado sugar that is listed in the recipe. If you don’t have it at home or can’t find it in a supermarket you can use cane sugar instead of brown sugar. Even regular white sugar is ok – the flavors will be slightly different but still nice ;)

    What are your favorite bundt cake recipes? Is there something you do all the time over and over? Besides this cake here I am really loving me a Banana Rum Bundt Cake – great flavors and texture. So good! Mmmm… :)

    3 large eggs
    2 tsp. vanilla extract

    DIRECTIONS / ZUBEREITUNG

    • English
    • Deutsch

    1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a bundt pan and set aside. Mix the muscovado sugar, ground almonds, and ground cinnamon for the filling in a small bowl and set aside.

    2. Add the butter and sugar to a large bowl and mix until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one after another and mix well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and mix in. Mix the spelt flour with baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Mix the milk and heavy cream in a third bowl. Add the flour mix alternating with the milk/cream mixture to the bowl in two batches and mix in until just combined – do not overmix the batter. Add some of the batter to the greased bundt pan and spread out evenly. Sprinkle with a good amount of the brown sugar mixture. Add another layer of batter, sprinkle again with the sugar mix and so on – you want 4-5 layers of dough and the sugar-cinnamon mixture. Finish with the sugar mixture and then place in the oven.

    3. Bake for about 45-50 minutes or until a wooden skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean. Take out of the oven and let cool down in the pan for about 15 minutes, then carefully remove and let cool down completely on a wire rack.

    4. For the frosting mix the confectioners’ sugar with vanilla extract and heavy cream until smooth. The mixture should be thick but still pourable, so adjust with some more heavy cream or additional confectioners’ sugar if needed. Drizzle over the cooled cake and let dry a bit before cutting.

    1. Den Ofen auf 180°C (350°F) Ober-/Unterhitze vorheizen. Eine Gugelhupfform einfetten und zur Seite stellen. Für die Zimtfüllung den Mascobado Zucker mit den gemahlenen Mandeln und Zimt vermischen und zur Seite stellen.

    2. Die Butter mit dem Zucker in einer großen Schüssel hell und luftig aufschlagen. Die Eier einzeln dazugeben und jeweils gut unterrühren, bevor das nächste dazukommt. Vanille Extrakt dazugeben und unterrühren. Dinkelmehl mit Backpulver und Salz vermischen, Milch mit Sahne ebenfalls separat vermischen und dann alles in mehreren Portionen abwechselnd zur großen Schüssel dazugeben und nur kurz verrühren – der Teig sollte nicht zu viel gerührt werden. Eine kleine Portion Teig in die gefettete Form geben und glatt streichen. Eine gute Portion der Zucker-Zimt-Mischung darüberstreuen und dann eine weitere Schicht Teig darauf verteilen. Erneut die Zucker-Zimt-Mischung darauf verteilen und wieder mit Teig bedecken – im Ganzen sollen etwa 4-5 Schichten Teig und Zuckermischung entstehen, wobei mit dem Zucker-Zimt-Gemisch abgeschlossen werden sollte.

    3. Die Form in den Ofen stellen und dann für etwa 45-50 Minuten backen. Mit einem Holzspieß testen, ob noch Teig kleben bleibt und den Kuchen erst herausholen, wenn dieser sauber herauskommt. Kuchen aus dem Ofen holen und in der Form für etwa 15 Minuten abkühlen lassen, dann vorsichtig herauslösen und auf einem Kuchengitter komplett auskühlen lassen.

    4. Für die Glasur den Puderzucker mit Vanille Extrakt und Sahne glatt rühren. Die Glasur sollte dickflüssig sein, aber trotzdem noch gut verlaufen können, wenn man den Kuchen damit dekoriert – ggf. noch etwas Sahne oder Puderzucker dazugeben. Die Glasur über den Kuchen geben und vor dem Anschneiden noch etwas antrocknen lassen.
