How to Make Delicious Classic Vanilla Bundt Cake

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C), then grease a bundt pan and dust with sugar.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the granulated sugar, oil, and melted butter until light and pale (about 2-3 minutes).
  • Add the eggs, egg white, and vanilla bean paste to the sugar mixture, whisking until combined and light.
  • Gradually alternate adding the buttermilk and dry ingredients in thirds, folding gently after each addition until combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for approximately 30 minutes, testing for doneness with a toothpick.
  • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar.
