How to Make Honey Walnut Cake
About this Recipe
A Bundt cake is a cake baked in a Bundt pan and shaped into a distinctive doughnut shape. The shape is based on a traditional European cake called Gugelhupf, but Bundt cakes are not typically associated with a single recipe. Bundt cakes do not follow any specific recipe; instead, their distinguishing feature is their shape. The central tube or chimney that leaves a cylindrical hole through the centre of the cake is the most distinguishing design element of a Bundt pan. The design allows more of the mixture to contact the pans surface than asimple round pan, resulting in faster and more even heat distribution during baking.
What is the point of a Bundt cake?
Because the bundt pan allows more of the cake to come into contact with the pans edges, heat is distributed more evenly. If you bake pound cake in a standard round cake pan, it will either not cook in the centre or burn on the edges.
Why is it called a Bundt?
Dave Dalquist, the pans designer, coined and trademarked the term Bundt. The name comes from the German word bundkuchen, which means "a cake for a gathering. Dalquist added the T to his name in order to trademark it. The cake may look complicated, but it is actually pretty simple to make. There are two parts in this recipe, a honey walnut filling and a cake batter. I love the nutty honey filling which is surrounded by a vanilla pound cake. Delicious. This cake is so easy to handle and will give you a clean slice when you cut them. So delicious with a cup of chai. Unsalted Butter :Unsalted butter allows you to completely control the flavour of your recipe. This is especially important in baked goods that rely heavily on the pure, sweet cream flavour of butter (butter cookies or pound cakes). When it comes to cooking, unsalted butter allows the true, natural flavour of your foods to shine through. Walnuts :The meat of walnuts is rich, sweet, and earthy. The bitterness is enhanced by the papery skin. Walnuts are high in antioxidants and high in heart-healthy fats. Furthermore, eating walnuts on a regular basis may improve brain health and lower your risk of heart disease and cancer.
