🛒 Ingredients

8 servings

8
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons margarine
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • Margarine and flour for greasing the pan
  • Cinnamon and sugar for topping

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 °F (180 °C). Grease and flour a bundt pan or a round tube pan.

  2. 2

    Blend the eggs alone in a blender for 1 minute — this removes any egg odor and helps create a lighter batter.

  3. 3

    Add the flour, sugar, milk, margarine, and cinnamon to the blender. Mix until you get a smooth, uniform batter.

  4. 4

    Turn off the blender. Gently fold in the baking powder with a spoon — do not blend again, to keep the batter airy.

  5. 5

    Pour the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle the top generously with cinnamon sugar.

  6. 6

    Bake for 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool before unmolding.

💡 Chef's Tip

Use whole milk at room temperature for the fluffiest texture. Swap margarine for melted unsalted butter for a richer flavor. Store covered at room temperature for up to 3 days.
