Coffee Cake Bundt Cake Recipe

Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour
Total Time: 1 hour 30 minutes
Yield: 24
This Coffee Cake Bundt Cake is fluffy and moist due to its use of sour cream in the coffee cake batter. A cinnamon swirl in the middle adds a nice spice flavor which pairs perfectly with the buttery crumble on top. Each layer uses simple ingredients and is made with easy-to-follow instructions.

Ingredients
 

Crumb Topping

  • 2/3 cup All Purpose Flour
  • 2/3 cup Light Brown Sugar
  • 2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 6 tbsp Salted Butter, softened to room temperature

Cinnamon Swirl

  • 1/2 cup Dark Brown Sugar
  • 2 tsp Ground Cinnamon

Coffee Cake

  • 1 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 3/4 cup Salted Butter, softened to room temperature
  • 3 large Eggs, at room temperature
  • 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup Sour Cream
  • 2 cups All Purpose Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F
  • Grease the bundt pan with nonstick spray
  • First, we are going to make the crumb topping
  • Top a mixing bowl, add the flour, light brown sugar and cinnamon
  • Whisk until combined
  • Cut the softened butter into chunks then add into the bowl
  • Use either a fork, pastry cutter or your hands to combine the ingredients together. I typically use my hand and continually mixing until you get a crumble
  • Transfer the crumble into the prepared bundt pan
  • Gently press down so that there are no loose pieces
  • Next, we are going to quickly make the cinnamon swirl
  • To a bowl, mix together the dark brown sugar and cinnamon. Set aside
  • Now, lets make the coffee cake batter
  • To a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, add the softened butter and granulated sugar
  • Mix until combined (if not using a stand mixer, use an electric hand mixer)
  • Once light and fluffy, start to add in your eggs one at a time
  • With the last egg, add the vanilla extract as well
  • Once combined, add in 1 cup of flour
  • Mix
  • Add in half of the sour cream
  • Mix and add in the remaining flour as well as the baking powder and baking soda
  • Once combined, add in the remaining sour cream and mix
  • Pour 2/3 of the batter on top of the crumb layer in the bundt pan and spread in an even layer
  • Sprinkle all of the cinnamon sugar mixture on top
  • Add the remaining batter on top and spread in an even layer
  • Put in the oven to bake for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out of the center clean (after about 45 minutes, I added some aluminum foil on top loosely to prevent the top from burning)
  • Once done, remove from the oven and let cool in the bundt pan for about 2 hours
  • Use a knife to loosen the cake from the sides
  • Flip the pan over onto a baking sheet or serving platter
  • Remove the pan from the coffee cake bundt cake
  • Dust with powdered sugar (optional)
  • Slice and enjoy!
