How to prevent your Bundt cake from sticking:
Bundt cakes are pretty, but it can be hard to remove them from the pans without the cake sticking. However, here are a few easy tips to help your Bundt cake come out of the pan with ease.
- The more intricate the Bundt pan design, the harder it is to remove the cake fully intact. It's best to use a nonstick bundt pan with a simple design.
- You also need to take care of your nonstick Bundt pan to help prevent sticking. It's best to hand wash your nonstick Bundt pan with mild detergent and a soft sponge. Anything abrasive will scratch the nonstick coating.
- In addition, you need to oil every nook and cranny of the Bundt pan immediately before baking. If you let the oil sit too long, you'll risk it drying before pouring in the batter. If your Bundt pan has an intricate design, you can use a silicon bush to help get the oil into each crevice.Â
- Finally, let the bundt cake cool before flipping over and removing from pan. If the sides are sticking a bit, you can use a silicone spatula to carefully loosen the cake from the sides of the pan.
