Bundt cake is such an iconic cake that brings me that warming, cozy and familiar feeling when served. It’s so strongly associated with going for a “fika” (having cake and coffee in Sweden) with your grandma or family. It is a cake that is made with love and to share with your closes family and friends. But the great thing with bundt cakes is that they can be made in so many different ways. Yes, in Sweden we do have a classic “sockerkaka” (sugar cake) and there are few things that feel more Swedish than a classic sockerkaka. But the great thing with bundt cakes is that you really can make them with any seasoning, add-ins or flavor that you like and prefer. This one is a mix of a classic Swedish “sockerkaka” but with an addition of plum jam that makes it feel more wintery and cozy. This cake is really easy and quick to make, and is both healthier than a regular cake but still as delicious. I used my recipe for plum compote when making this cake, but I added one tablespoon of stevia granulated sugar and let it reduce until very thick. I would really recommend you tp try to make your own plum jam/sauce if you can find fresh plums since it’s so easy and quick, and you know exactly what’s in it. But you can also use a store bought jam if you don’t want to make your own or have the time. This cake is great to serve as an afternoon treat or dessert during plum season. It is both gluten and refined sugar free.
A few tips:
- I made my own plum jam/sauce using this recipe. But I also added one tablespoon of stevia sugar and let it reduce until very thick.
- Make sure your jam/sauce isn’t too thin, otherwise it will prevent the cake from sticking together.
- Depending on if you prefer your plum jam in the middle or on the top add either half of the batter or just 1/3 at the beginning, then cover with the rest.
- Use a toothpick to check if the cake is done. It’s done when the toothpick comes out clean.
- Make sure to let the cake cool down completely before removing it from the pan. Otherwise it might break.
