Preheat the oven to 160 degrees Celsius and grease a bundt cake tin well with butter. Dust with a thin layer of flour, if desired.
Beat the butter and sugar until fluffy with a stand mixer, this will take about 5 minutes.
Add the eggs, one at a time, adding the next egg only when the previous one is fully incorporated into the batter.
Sift the flour and baking powder and gradually add to the batter. Mix until the batter is smooth, and add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
Spread the batter into the bundt mould and bake the cake until cooked through and nicely golden brown (around 1 hour).
You can use a wooden skewer to check if the cake is done; if it comes out clean the cake is ready. Dust with icing sugar and serve with butterscotch sauce, if desired. Enjoy!
What is the difference between a bundt cake and a sponge cake?
There is no real difference between a bundt cake and a sponge cake; you can bake the same cake batter in a bundt mould or a standard cake tin. Bear in mind that a bundt often needs to be baked for longer, as these tins are usually larger than standard cake tins.
Which type of bundt cake tin is best to use?
You can use different types and styles of bundt cake tins, such as silicone or aluminium. It's down to your personal preference, as they both work equally well.
