Recipe Box, Blueberry & Bacon Breakfast Bundt
This is a reinvention of a recipe I posted a long time ago,
Blueberry Bacon Breakfast Cake
I decided to make it in a bundt pan and add maple syrup
😋
You probably have most of the ingredients in your pantry
Flour, white and brown sugars, baking powder {not pictured,}
eggs, butter, cinnamon, vanilla, maple syrup
milk, blueberries and bacon
Mix the dry and wet ingredients separately,
then combine and stir in the bacon and blueberries
Coating the blueberries with flour
prevents them from all sinking down to the bottom
Grease or spray your pan* thoroughly right before adding the batter
Bake for 30 minutes and test for doneness,
and continue baking until cake tester comes out clean
My cake took 45 minutes but time can vary due to oven and pan used
Let cake cool for 1-3 hours, then poke all over and drizzle with syrup
Let cake sit a while longer to absorb syrup before turning it out onto a plate
Make icing by beating cream cheese with sugar, milk and vanilla
Spread over cooled cake and garnish with blueberries
*After a sticking issue I had with the Italian Party Bread
I ordered a silicone bundt pan
I highly recommend it, this cake slid out like a dream!

This has to be so delicious!
Thanks Martha 🙂
Jenna, I wish I had a slice this morning! It looks yummy! I adore cream cheese frosting and anything blueberry. That is good to know about the silicone bundt pan. I always hold my breath when I use my aluminum one. Happy Wednesday!
Thanks Shannon, I love the new pan!
Well this is an interesting combination!
It does sound a little odd, but it’s really good!
I’m sure it is!
This breakfast bundt cake looks just perfect for a Sunday breakfast. Thanks for the recipe to make it.

I would never have thought of putting bacon in a breakfast cake, but I bet it was good. Bundt pans have been problematic at our house too. I will be sharing this idea with my chef (husband); I know he will like it.
Bacon makes everything better, right!?
Oh my word, Jenna, this sounds so fabulous!! I want a slice right now!
Thank you!
Yum Jenna, everything is better with bacon! Love the sweet and salty combo ♥
me too, sweet and salty is my favorite 🙂
Looks like a lovely way to start the day. Bacon with your sweet blueberry Bundt cake. The silicone pan makes life easier.
