Description
A festive Red, White, and Blue Bundt Cake perfect for celebrations, featuring layers of strawberry and blueberry flavors.
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, pureed
- 1 cup fresh blueberries, pureed
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 1 tablespoon milk (for glaze)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the whole milk, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
- Divide the batter into three equal portions. In one bowl, mix in the pureed strawberries. In the second bowl, mix in the pureed blueberries. Leave the third portion plain.
- Spoon the batters into the prepared bundt pan, alternating colors to create a marbled effect. Use a knife to swirl the batters together gently.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled cake.
Notes
- For a festive touch, add fresh fruit or whipped cream on top before serving.
- You can substitute the fruit purees with other flavors like lemon or raspberry for a different twist.
