POPPY SEED BUTTERMILK BUNDT® CAKE



Poppy Seed Buttermilk Bundt® Cake image

This "from-scratch" recipe is consistently the best I have ever seen and used. My grandmothers, mother, myself, and now my daughter used and use this fail-safe recipe. Husband waits around to "clean" the mixing bowl! This cake is very good, if out on counter and wrapped, for up to 3 days. Great as a dessert or for breakfast! Can sprinkle a mixture of cinnamon and sugar on top, or eat it plain. Freezes nicely if wrapped well.

Categories     Desserts     Cakes     Bundt Cake Recipes

Time 1h55m

Yield 14

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup buttermilk
¼ cup poppy seeds, or to taste
4 large eggs, at room temperature
2 ½ cups bleached all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups white sugar
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Combine buttermilk and poppy seeds in a small bowl. Soak for 10 to 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Thoroughly grease a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®).
  • Separate egg yolks and whites into 2 separate bowls (use a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl for the whites). Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a third bowl.
  • Combine sugar and butter in a large mixing bowl; beat with an electric mixer until creamy. Add egg yolks; mix until thoroughly combined. Beat in the buttermilk-poppy seed mixture and vanilla extract. Add 1/2 of the dry ingredients and beat thoroughly; repeat with remaining dry ingredients.
  • Beat egg whites on high speed until there is no clear liquid left, 3 to 5 minutes. Fold into the batter.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto a serving plate or cooling rack. Let cool completely.

Tips:

  • To achieve a perfectly moist and flavorful cake, ensure that all ingredients are at room temperature before mixing.
  • Measure ingredients accurately using a kitchen scale for precise results. Over-measuring dry ingredients can lead to a dense cake, while under-measuring can result in a runny batter.
  • Mix the batter until just combined to avoid over-mixing, which can develop gluten in the flour and make the cake tough.
  • Use a bundt pan with a nonstick coating or grease and flour the pan thoroughly to prevent the cake from sticking.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven to ensure even cooking and prevent the cake from sinking in the middle.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan before inverting it onto a wire rack. This will help prevent the cake from breaking.
  • For a decadent glaze, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake for a sweet and shiny finish.

If you're looking for a moist, flavorful, and visually stunning cake to impress your friends and family, give this Coconut Poppy Seed Bundt Cake a try.
