Bundt Coffee Cake with Cinnamon Swirl
Description
The Bundt Coffee Cake is prepared by layering a smooth batter composed of flour, baking soda, salt, sugar, butter, eggs, sour cream, vanilla, and optional whiskey in a prepared Bundt pan. Between layers, a mixture of chopped walnuts, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon is sprinkled to create a cinnamon swirl effect throughout the cake.
Baked at 300 degrees Fahrenheit for about 70 minutes, the cake develops a consistent texture with a soft crumb complemented by the cinnamon swirl and walnut crunch. The addition of sour cream contributes moisture and richness, while the optional whiskey adds a subtle depth of flavor.
After baking, the cake cools before removal from the pan, allowing it to hold shape and avoid crumbling. It can be served as a morning treat with coffee or as a cozy dessert. Dusting with sugar or icing can be done optionally for added sweetness.
