Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease a 9-inch (23 cm) bundt or tube pan. Lightly dust with flour to prevent sticking.
In a medium skillet over medium heat, toast the chopped pecans for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix together the toasted pecans, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon to create the pecan filling. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream the butter and granulated sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Reduce the mixer speed to low and mix in the sour cream until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Spread half of the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle the pecan filling mixture evenly over the batter layer.
Spread the remaining batter on top of the pecan filling, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully invert it onto a wire cooling rack to cool completely before serving.
Optional: Dust with powdered sugar before serving for an extra touch of sweetness.
