Instructions:
-
Prepare Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
-
Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, and ground cloves. Use a mixer to blend them together until well combined. This should take about 2 minutes on medium speed.
-
Add Nuts: After your mixture is smooth, gently fold in the chopped nuts. This will add a delightful crunch to your cake.
-
Prepare Pan: Coat a bundt pan generously with cooking spray and a light dusting of flour. This will ensure your cake doesn’t stick to the pan after baking.
-
Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and spread it out evenly. Place it in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Check Doneness: To ensure your cake is perfectly baked, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean or with just a few crumbs clinging to it, your cake is ready!
-
Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes. Then, carefully invert it onto a plate to release it from the pan. Let it cool completely before serving.
-
Optional: Once the cake is cooled, you can dust it with powdered sugar for a beautiful finishing touch. This step is optional but highly recommended for an extra touch of sweetness and elegance.
-
