Ingredients:
- 3 cups (375g) all-purpose flour
- 1½ tsp (7g) baking powder
- ½ tsp (3g) salt
- 1 cup (225g) unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups (400g) granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
- 1 tsp (5ml) non-alcoholic rum flavouring
- 1 cup (240ml) buttermilk, room temperature
- ½ cup (115g) unsalted butter
- 1 cup (200g) brown sugar, packed
- ¼ cup (60ml) heavy cream
- 1 tsp (5ml) non-alcoholic rum flavouring
- ¼ tsp (1g) salt
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Generously grease every part of a 10 to 12-cup Bundt pan with softened butter and dust with flour, tapping out the excess.
- Sift 375g all-purpose flour, 7g baking powder, and 3g salt into a bowl and set aside.
- Cream 225g softened butter and 400g granulated sugar on medium-high speed until the mixture is pale and fluffy.
- Incorporate 4 large eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully absorbed before adding the next.
- Stir in 1 tsp vanilla extract and 1 tsp non-alcoholic rum flavouring.
- Alternately add the sifted dry ingredients and 240ml buttermilk to the butter mixture, starting and ending with the flour; mix on low until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 50–60 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack.
- Melt 115g unsalted butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Whisk in 200g brown sugar, 60ml heavy cream, and 1g salt, simmering for 2–3 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 tsp non-alcoholic rum flavouring.
- While the cake is still warm, use a pastry brush to apply half of the glaze over the top; let it soak in, then brush the remaining glaze over the entire surface.
