Equipment

  • bundt cake pan

Ingredients
  

For the Streusel Filling

  • 1/3 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup ground almonds or almond flour
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 tsp ground cardamom
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg

For the Batter

  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • pinch salt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup sour cream

Raspberry Rose Glaze

  • 2 tsp rose water
  • 3 Tbsp low sugar raspberry spread such as Bonne Maman Intense Raspberry Spread
  • 1 cup icing sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease you bundt pan on all sides and grooves and also dust with a little flour and sugar (just to guarantee easy release).
  • In a medium sized bowl, mix the brown sugar, ground almonds, cinnamon, cardamom and nutmeg for the streusel filling, set aside.
  • In a large bowl, using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment or a hand mixer, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one after another and mix well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla.
  • In another large bowl, stir together flour with baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, mix the milk and sour cream together.
  • Beat in the flour mix alternating with the milk/sour cream mixture into the batter until just combined.
  • Divide the batter into thirds. Add 1/3 of the batter to bottom of greased bundt pan and spread out evenly. Sprinkle with 1/3 of the spiced streusel mixture. Add another layer of batter, making sure to spread evenly to edges of pan. A knife or back of spoon works well. Sprinkle again with 1/3 of the streusel mix and then finish with remaining batter, spreading out evenly. Reserve 1/3 of the streusel topping for garnish after glazing. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool down in the pan for about 15 minutes, then carefully remove and let cool down completely on a wire rack.
  • To make the glaze, in a pourable measuring cup, stir together the rose water and raspberry spread, then, in additions, stir in the icing sugar until you have a thick but pourable glaze. Drizzle overtop cooled bundt cake.
