🥘Ingredients

For the Cake

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups strongly brewed coffee, cooled
1/2 cup sour cream

For the Coffee Glaze

1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
2-3 tbsp strongly brewed coffee, cooled

👨‍🍳Directions

1Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
2Grease and flour a 9-inch bundt pan, tapping out any excess flour.
3In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Set aside.
4In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
5Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
6Stir in the vanilla extract.
7Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the cooled coffee, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.
8Mix just until combined.
9Fold in the sour cream until just combined.
10The batter will be thick.
11Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
12Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
13The top should be golden brown and the cake should pull away from the sides of the pan.
14Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes.
15Then, invert the cake onto a cooling rack and let it cool completely.
16While the cake is cooling, prepare the coffee glaze.
17In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and cooled coffee until smooth.
18Once the cake is completely cooled, drizzle the glaze over the top, allowing it to drip down the sides.
19Let the glaze set for a few minutes before serving.

This coffee bundt cake recipe is always a good idea for any occasion – whether you’re hosting a party, having a family dinner, or just need a quick dessert fix. The best part is that it’s incredibly versatile – you can serve it warm with whipped cream or ice cream, or let it cool completely and top it with powdered sugar or chopped nuts.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Coffee Bundt Cake

A: Yes, you can add chopped nuts or other mix-ins like chocolate chips or dried fruit to create a unique flavor combination.
