Fremgangsmåde
Trin for trin
- 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F).
Ca. 5 min.
- 2
Thoroughly grease and flour a 10-inch tube or Bundt pan.
Ca. 2 min.
Kokkens note: Using a baking spray with flour can make this step quicker and ensure an even coating.
- 3
In a medium bowl, whisk together the batter flour, baking powder, salt, and fruit-flavored gelatin powder.
Ca. 2 min.
Kokkens note: Whisking the dry ingredients ensures the leavening is evenly distributed for a consistent rise.
- 4
In a separate large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Ca. 4 min.
- 5
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition until fully incorporated.
Ca. 2 min.
Kokkens note: Scrape down the sides of the bowl periodically to ensure everything is evenly mixed.
- 6
Beat in the vegetable oil and vanilla extract until combined.
Ca. 1 min.
- 7
With the mixer on low speed, alternately add the dry ingredients and the milk to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix only until just combined.
Ca. 2 min.
Kokkens note: Overmixing can develop gluten and make the cake tough, so stop as soon as the flour streaks disappear.
- 8
If using pecans, toss the chopped pieces with the designated flour in a small bowl until they are lightly coated.
Ca. 1 min.
Kokkens note: Coating the nuts in flour helps prevent them from sinking to the bottom of the cake during baking.
- 9
Gently fold the flour-coated pecans into the batter with a spatula.
Ca. 1 min.
- 10
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with the spatula.
Ca. 1 min.
- 11
Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Ca. 50 min.
- 12
Place the pan on a wire rack and let the cake cool for 15 minutes before proceeding.
Ca. 15 min.
Kokkens note: This cooling period allows the cake to firm up, making it easier to remove from the pan without breaking.
- 13
Carefully invert the cake onto the wire rack, lift the pan off, and allow the cake to cool completely.
Ca. 1 t.
Kokkens note: Wait until the cake is fully cool before slicing to ensure clean cuts.
