Ingredients
Before we get our hands dirty, here’s what you’ll need to whip up this delightful treat:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 1 cup buttermilk
Instructions
Now that we’ve got our ingredients lined up, let’s jump into the fun part: making the cake!
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grab a bundt pan and grease it well so that our cake comes out nice and clean later.
- In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set that aside because we’ll come back to it in a hot minute.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together until it’s fluffy and light. This may take about 3-5 minutes, but trust me, it makes a difference.
- Add in the eggs, one at a time, making sure they’re well combined after each addition. Don’t forget that vanilla and almond extract — add those in too!
- Now, alternate between adding the flour mixture and buttermilk to the butter mixture. Start and end with the flour, mixing until just combined.
- Pour that glorious batter into the prepared bundt pan. Smooth it out and pop it in the oven for about 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean from the center.
- Let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before flipping it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, you can drizzle a simple glaze over the top if you like! Mix some powdered sugar with a little milk and almond extract until you get your desired consistency.
And there you have it, y’all! A stunning Glazed Almond Bundt Cake that’ll have everyone singing your praises. Perfect for gatherings or just a sweet treat for yourself. Enjoy every bite!
