Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Packed light brown sugar
- 4 Large eggs
- 1.5 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup Buttermilk
- 1.5 cups Fresh plums, pitted and chopped
- 1.5 cups Confectioners' sugar
- 2 tablespoons Plum jam or preserve
- 2 tablespoons Milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan or spray it with a nonstick baking spray.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
With the mixer on low speed, alternately add the dry ingredients and buttermilk to the wet ingredients, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined.
Gently fold the chopped fresh plums into the batter using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared Bundt pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then carefully invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
To prepare the glaze, whisk together the confectioners' sugar, plum jam, and milk in a small bowl until smooth and pourable. Add more milk if needed to reach your desired consistency.
Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the glaze evenly over the top of the cake, allowing it to drip down the sides.
Let the glaze set for about 15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your Glazed Plum Bundt Cake!
