Ingredients

This delicious cranberry orange bundt cake is made up of a few simple ingredients:

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) butter, softened
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
4 eggs
1 teaspoon orange extract
1/2 cup orange juice
2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Instructions

Let's get started on this amazing cranberry orange bundt cake! Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and grease a large bundt pan.

In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, mix together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the orange extract and orange juice and mix until combined.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not over mix.

Fold in the cranberries and walnuts (if using). Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Once the cake is cool, you can serve it as is, or you can glaze it with a simple orange glaze. To make the glaze, mix together 1 cup confectioners' sugar, 2 tablespoons orange juice, and 1 teaspoon orange extract. Drizzle over the cooled cake and enjoy!
