Although all evidence may point to the contrary, I haven’t only had cupcakes on the mind lately. A few weeks ago, I decided that a Bundt cake needed to happen. Basically, I wanted a dessert that I didn’t feel guilty about eating for breakfast and since Bundt cakes are occasionally served at brunch, I rolled with it. I also chose to go the coffee cake route because I generally drink coffee in the AM, and so by baking a coffee Bundt cake, I could somehow justify eating it while having my morning coffee (yes, this is how my mind works people). Moist with a thick layer of cinnamon and topped with a brown sugar crumb, the cake was pretty delicious. Suffice to say that breakfast didn’t disappoint that day. Plus, Bundt cakes kind of look like over sized donuts and I love donuts, just sayin’.
