Jelly Doughnut Bundt Cake Recipes

JELLY DOUGHNUT BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Make the dough: Mix 1 1/2 cups flour, the milk and yeast in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment on low speed until combined, about 45 seconds.
• Cover the yeast mixture with the remaining 1 1/2 cups flour, the sugar and salt; set aside until the yeast mixture starts to rise through the flour and the mixture looks craggy, about 45 minutes. Add the eggs and mix on low speed until just incorporated. Increase the speed to medium high and beat until the dough is smooth, uniform and starts to pull away from the sides of the bowl, about 5 minutes.
• With the mixer running, add the 3 sticks butter, 1 cube at a time, making sure each piece is incorporated before adding the next. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix 1 more minute. Transfer the dough to a separate large bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight.
• Brush a 10- to 15-cup Bundt pan with the melted butter to coat. Place the dough in the pan, gently patting it down until it is even. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm spot until the dough fills two-thirds of the pan, 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
• Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Bake the cake until dark golden brown, about 35 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool 15 minutes in the pan, then invert onto the rack to cool completely, about 2 hours.
• Make the syrup and filling: Combine 1/4 cup each sugar, raspberry jam and boiling water in a bowl, stirring to dissolve the sugar; set aside. Invert the cake again and make eight 2-inch-deep, 1-inch-wide incisions evenly spaced around the bottom of the cake with a paring knife. Fill a pastry bag fitted with a 3/4-inch tip with the remaining 1 1/4 cups jam and pipe it evenly into the incisions. Let the cake sit 5 minutes, then invert back onto a plate and brush with the raspberry syrup. Let sit 5 minutes, then sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup sugar.

OLD-FASHIONED DOUGHNUT BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Generously grease a 10- or 12-cup Bundt pan, taking care to get into all the grooves of the pan.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream 1 cup/225 grams room-temperature butter and 1 1/2 cups/300 grams sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time and mix until well incorporated, scraping the mixing bowl after each addition. Add the vanilla and mix to combine.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, nutmeg, baking powder, baking soda and salt to combine. Add half of the flour mixture to the mixer and mix on low speed until incorporated. With the mixer running, add the buttermilk in a slow, steady stream and mix until combined. Add the remaining flour and mix until fully incorporated. Scrape the bowl well to be sure the batter is well combined.
• Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and spread evenly. Tap the pan heavily on the counter a few times to help even out the batter and remove air pockets. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean, 45 to 55 minutes.
• Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 to 20 minutes, then flip the pan onto a cooling rack set inside a baking sheet. Tap the pan heavily onto the rack. The cake should easily release. If it doesn't, use a small offset spatula to gently run around the edges of the pan to help release, then tap it again onto the rack.
• In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2/3 cup/135 grams sugar with the cinnamon to combine. Brush the warm cake all over with melted butter, then spoon cinnamon sugar over the cake. Brush any bare areas with the melted butter and reuse any cinnamon sugar that falls onto the baking sheet below the rack, using your hands to gently press it into the surface of the cake to help it stick. The idea is to get the cake fully coated all over with cinnamon sugar. Let the cake cool completely before serving.
