Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grab your bundt pan. Generously grease and flour the pan, ensuring to cover all intricate details to prevent sticking later.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed for 3 to 4 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Add the large eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, mixing well after each addition. Incorporate the sour cream and vanilla extract until everything is just combined.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet batter, alternating with the milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined.
- In a small bowl, stir together the brown sugar and ground cinnamon until well blended. Pour half of the cake batter into your prepared bundt pan, then evenly sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top. Carefully add the remaining batter.
- Using a butter knife, gently swirl through the batter in a figure-eight motion to create a beautiful marbled effect.
- Place the bundt pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50 to 60 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the thickest part of the cake.
- Once baked, let the Cinnamon Swirl Bundt Cake cool in the pan for about 15 minutes. Then, gently invert the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
Start with room temperature butter and eggs for a smooth, well-combined batter. Wrap leftover cake tightly to keep it moist.
