How to Make Pecan Praline Bundt Cake
Do not preheat the oven yet. Prepare your bundt pan by spraying it with baking spray (containing flour) or using regular non-stick spray and sprinkle it with a thin coat of flour. Tap out the excess and set it aside.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the sugars, butter, shortening, and vanilla.
In another medium-sized bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to combine and set it aside.
In your stand mixing bowl, add the eggs and buttermilk and mix until smooth.
Pour in your dry ingredients and combine well. Stop the machine, scrape the sides, and mix again.
Pour your cake batter into the prepared bundt pan.
Place the pan in the oven and heat it to 325 degrees. Bake the cake for a total of 1 – ½ hours or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool completely before removing it from the pan. To remove, invert the pan onto a plate or serving platter and gently use a butter knife only if needed to release the cake from the pan.
When ready to serve, prepare the praline glaze. In a microwave-safe, medium-sized bowl, melt the butter. Whisk in the brown sugar and heavy cream. Heat the mixture in the microwave for another 2 minutes.
Remove the bowl from the microwave and add in the vanilla and chopped pecan pieces. Allow the glaze to cool for about 5 minutes before pouring it over the cake.
