Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 4 large Eggs
• 1.5 cups Cranberry sauce
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 1 teaspoon Orange zest

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and generously grease a 10-cup Bundt pan with butter or non-stick cooking spray. Lightly flour the pan to prevent sticking.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Use a hand or stand mixer for best results.

Step 3

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the butter mixture, alternating with sour cream. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.

Step 6

Gently fold in the cranberry sauce until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula to ensure it’s evenly distributed.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

To prepare the glaze, whisk the powdered sugar, milk, and orange zest together in a small bowl until smooth and pourable. Adjust consistency by adding more powdered sugar or milk as needed.

Step 11

Once the Bundt cake is fully cooled, drizzle the orange glaze over the top, allowing it to cascade down the sides for an elegant finish.

Step 12

Slice and serve your Cranberry Sauce Bundt Cake. Enjoy!
