You know bundt cakes by their signature ring shape with a hole in the middle—they almost look like giant cake doughnuts. What you might not know, however, is just how versatile they can be (and the best bundt pan to use). We’ve tested plenty of different spins on the classic cake, from a coconut chiffon recipe with coconut frosting, to an indulgent, rich porter bundt with whiskey-caramel sauce. Read on for those recipes, as well as more bundt cakes we love.

Lemon Bundt Cake

Go to Recipe

When Matt Lewis became a baker, he started a quest to re-create the lemon Bundt cakes of his youth. After "a million different versions," he says, he achieved lemon-cake bliss, using the zest of 10 lemons and a little lemon extract to get the flavor just right. The cake has a moist crumb (thanks to a lemony syrup brushed over the top) and a crackling, sugary glaze.

Applesauce-Chocolate Chip Bundt Cake

Go to Recipe

Kristin Donnelly is devoted to her mother's one-bowl Bundt cake because of its clove and cinnamon spices and its simplicity. As an exchange student in France, she even paid top dollar for chocolate chips and applesauce at an American market to make it for her host family. Today she adds a kick of black pepper to the batter and serves each slice with a cool-sour dollop of creme fraiche.

Double-Chocolate Bundt Cake with Ganache Glaze

Go to Recipe

Many Bundt cakes are heavy and buttery, but this one is surprisingly light and incredibly moist under its silky chocolate glaze. Strong-brewed coffee in the batter intensifies the chocolate flavor while cutting the sweetness.

Spiced Upside-Down Apple Bundt Cake

Go to Recipe

David Guas, co-author of the cookbook DamGoodSweet, tops his apple Bundt cake with a nicely salty streusel of pecans and toasted rolled oats. He bakes the streusel on its own to make it extraordinarily crisp, then pats it over the warm cake right out of the oven.

Apple and Olive Oil Bundt Cake

Go to Recipe

At Coyle’s Bakeshop in Seattle, chef-owner Rachael Coyle always keeps a Bundt cake or two in the case. This autumnal version, an adaptation of an Italian apple cake, is moist and light, fragrant with freshly ground spices and studded with chunks of fruit. In the spring, substitute fresh rhubarb for the apples.
