Ingredients

Scale

For the Cakes:

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp vanilla bean paste (or seeds from 1 vanilla bean)
  • ½ cup whole milk (or buttermilk)
  • ¼ cup sour cream

For the Vanilla Glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp milk (or heavy cream)
  • ½ tsp vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat & Prepare the Pans

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease and flour a mini Bundt pan to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Make the Cake Batter

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy (2-3 minutes).
  3. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  4. Mix in vanilla bean paste.
  5. Gradually mix in dry ingredients, alternating with milk and sour cream, until smooth.

Step 3: Bake the Mini Bundt Cakes

  1. Divide batter evenly among the mini Bundt molds, filling each about ¾ full.
  2. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  3. Let cool for 10 minutes, then carefully remove from the pan and transfer to a wire rack.

Step 4: Make the Glaze & Drizzle

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla bean paste until smooth.
  2. Drizzle over cooled cakes and let set for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Extra Moist Cakes: Add 1 tbsp honey or ½ tsp almond extract for a flavor boost.
  • No Vanilla Bean Paste? Use 2 tsp pure vanilla extract instead.
  • Make It Dairy-Free: Swap butter for vegan butter and use almond milk.
  • Storage: Keep at room temp for 3 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
