A Cinnamon Cake that is simple, fast, and delicious! This Cinnamon Cake recipe is light and flavourful and makes for the perfect anytime cake, from breakfast to snack or dessert! 

This tea time cake is prepared in a bundt tin for a beautiful presentation and covered in cinnamon and sugar glaze. 

I’m so excited to share this tea cake recipe with all of you today! It’s really easy to make but looks like that you’ve put in hours of hard work in the kitchen.

The crust is sweet, crumbly and buttery with a crisp sugar and cinnamon glaze. 

I truly love cinnamon….specially the smell of it! It’s one of my favourite smells! 

Recently I’m becoming more and more obsessed with easy bakes. Specially easy bakes that are decadent and delicious! Most of my popular recipes are ALWAYS those which are easy to make and can be recreated every time without any flaws.  

That’s the reason my Chocolate Chip Banana Bread is the most popular recipe on my website.

I know how it is for all of you, I completely understand, most of the time we need foolproof bakes that can be whipped up easily or even last minute when we have unexpected guests. But at the same time I do like to create challenging recipes too that are more extravagant. 

So why is this Cinnamon Cake so special? 

Despite the recipe being easy, it is actually one of my most favourite cakes. Even though the cake has no frosting, it still has the sugary cinnamon crust which will make you want more every time you have it. After this cake is baked, pour the sugar cinnamon glaze on top and let the cake soak it all up. 

You’ll surely be reminded of having a warm cinnamon donut! 

Tips for making the perfect Cinnamon Cake

• Make sure the butter is at room temperature. You don’t want the butter to be fridge cold nor melty. Ideally take it out of the fridge 15 minutes before starting the process.
  
• The first process for this tea cake recipe is to beat the butter and sugar together. This process is known as creaming. When you beat the sugar and butter together, eventually the texture of the mixture will change and it’ll be creamy and pale. This is exactly the texture you need. Creaming the butter and sugar together till it reaches a creamy and pale texture will help in achieving a light and fluffy cake. 
  
• Next are the eggs! Majority of the time when eggs are added to the batter, the batter turns lumpy and looks curdled. But this is nothing to worry about, it is completely normal.
  
• When it comes to mixing in the dry ingredients, remember to gently fold in the dry ingredients using the cut and fold method. This process is important as it will prevent you from ruining the air incorporated in the batter. 
  
• Once the cake is ready, pour the sugar and cinnamon glaze generously all over it and let the cake soak up all the syrup. The cake is best served warm. You can also serve with custard or fresh berries!
