Sour Cream Bundt Cake w/ Chai Glaze

This is one of the most delcious cakes I’ve made. The flavors are subtle but perfect. You can serve it with the Chai flavored Icing / Glaze or you can make a simple Cream Cheese Frosting or serve with a scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream. The cake recipe calls for Cake Flour which really gives it a beautiful crumb and makes it light and moist.

Serves 8 - 10

Dry Ingredients

2 1/2 cups Cake Flour ( You can use All Purpose Flour but the Cake Flour really helps give this cake it’s lightness)

1 cup of Sugar

2 tsp of Baking Powder

1 tsp of Baking Soda

Pinch of Salt ( abut 1/2 tsp)

1/2 tsp of Cinnamon

1/8 tsp of Nutmeg

Pinch of Ground Cloves

Wet Ingredients:

1/2 cup plus 2 Tbsp of Sour Cream ( I used Follow Your Heart)

6 oz of Dairy Free Vanilla Bean Yogurt ( I used Follow Your Heart brand)

1/2 cup Plant Based Milk ( I used Oat)

6 Tbsp of room temperature Vegan Butter

2 tsp of Vanilla Extract

1 tsp of Almond Extract

Chai Glaze

1 cup Powdered Sugar sifted

1 tsp of Vanilla Exract

1 tsp of Chai Spice Mix

1/3 cup Vegan Sour Cream

2 Tbsp of Plant Based Milk

Directions

1. In a large bowl mix together the Flour, Baking Powder, Baking Soda and Spices and set aside

2. Cream together the room temperature Vegan Butter and cup of Sugar using either an electric hand mixer or stand mixer until both ingredients are well combined and creamy.

3. Add in the Almond and Vanilla Extracts and mix for a moment until combined.

4. Alternating dry and wet ingredients; carefully add in about 1/2 of the Dry Flour mixture and continue mixing the batter on a low speed.

5. Next add in the Sour Cream and Vanilla Yogurt and continue mixing until just combined.

6. Add in the remaining Flour and mix. Finally, add in the Plant Based Milk and mix until all the ingredients are just combined. Do not over mix the batter. The batter will resemble a sticky cookie dough.

7. Spoon the batter into a well greased pan and smooth it out to get it as even as possible.

8. Bake at 350 for 45 -55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean ( my oven runs hot so it was done in 45 minutes, you may need to bake yours longer).

Chai Glaze

1. To make the Chai Glaze, sift the Powdered Sugar into a large Bowl and add the remaining ingredients.

2. Using a whisk, mix well until all ingredients are smooth.

3. Pour over the cooled cake or over each individual serving.
