Grandma’s Bundt Cake

Grandma’s Bundt Cake, a rustic, delicious and very soft cake perfect for breakfast.

It is made with a one-bowl mixture and can be done with either melted butter or, as in my case, sunflower oil. Just repeat the same weight for the ingredients.

Grandma’s bundt cake is one of those recipes you can’t miss, perfect for breakfast or a snack, and it takes just a few minutes to prepare.
