Best Cinnamon Twist Pound Cake Recipes

BEST EVER CINNAMON BUNDT® CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Brush a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®) with a little butter and dust with some flour.
• Cream sugar, butter, and oil together in a bowl until well combined. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in vanilla extract.
• Sift 2 cups plus 2 tablespoons flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl. Fold 1/3 of the flour mixture gently into the butter mixture with a spatula. Mix in 1/2 of the buttermilk. Repeat once more, then mix in remaining flour until just combined. Avoid overmixing. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Allow cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting onto a cooling rack to cool completely.

CINNAMON SUGAR POUND CAKE

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Spray a 12-cup Bundt pan with nonstick spray and dust with flour.
• In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and granulated sugar on medium-low until thick and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl between additions to ensure everything is homogenous. Slowly beat in the flour just until combined (the batter will be very thick).
• Scrape the batter into the prepared Bundt pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean and the top is golden, 60 to 75 minutes. Cool in the pan on a rack for 20 minutes to allow the sides to release, then invert the cake onto the rack to cool completely.
• For the glaze: Whisk the confectioners' sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Add 2 tablespoons milk and whisk well. If the glaze drips off a spoon fluidly but slowly, it's done; if not, add more milk, a teaspoon or so at a time, until it does.
• Drizzle the glaze over the top of the cake, letting it run down the sides. Serve.

CINNAMON TWIST POUND CAKE

Steps:

• 1. Beat butter at medium speed until soft and creamy, about 2 minutes. Gradually add 2 cups sugar, beating at medium speed for 5 to 7 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating just until the yellow disappears.
• 2. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to the creamed butter mixture alternately with the water, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix at low speed just until blended. Stir in the vanilla.
• 3. Pour half of the batter into a greased and floured 12-cup Bundt pan. Combine 1/2 cup pecans, cinnamon, and brown sugar. Sprinkle over the batter. Top with the remaining half of the batter.
• 4. Bake at 325 degrees for 55 to 60 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Remove from the pan and let it cool completely on a wire rack.
• 5. Combine the powdered sugar and the lemon juice. Drizzle over the cake. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup pecans.
