Instructions
Prep Time: 15 minutes / Cook Time: 45-50 minutes / Yields: 1 bunt cake, 12 servings
Step 1

Pre heat the oven to 350 degrees.

Step 2

In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon.

Step 3

Add the C&H® Premium Pure Cane Granulated Sugar to a large mixing bowl with the orange zest. Stir the zest into the sugar.

Step 4

Add the butter and beat with a hand mixer until light and fluffy. Then, beat in the eggs one at a time.

Step 5

Mix in the buttermilk, vanilla, and orange juice until well combined. Mix in the dry ingredients and mix until just a few streaks of flour remain. Then fold in the cranberries. 

Step 6

Grease a 10 cup bunt pan and then add the cake batter. Bake 45-50 minutes or until a knife comes out clean. Let cool for 15 minutes then turn the cake out of the pan. Let the cake cool to room temperature.

Step 7

Make the glaze by combining the C&H® Powdered Sugar, cinnamon, and cranberry juice starting with 1 tablespoon and stir until no lumps of sugar remain. If too thick add more cranberry juice.

Additional Tips

Use room temperature milk, eggs, butter, and orange juice.

Use a non-stick bunt pan - you will still need to grease it, but it helps to ensure your cake comes out clean.

Press the orange zest into the sugar to release more of the flavor.
