Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
   • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt pan to ensure the cake comes out easily after baking.
2. Mix the Cake Batter:
   • In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
   • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract.
   • In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon (if using), and salt.
   • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the sour cream (or Greek yogurt). Start and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
3. Add Optional Add-ins:
   • Gently fold in your choice of add-ins, like chopped nuts, dried fruit, or berries. If using chocolate chips, fold those in as well.
4. Bake the Cake:
   • Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
   • Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
   • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then carefully turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
5. Make the Glaze (Optional):
   • In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk (or orange juice), and vanilla extract until smooth. If you prefer a thicker glaze, add more powdered sugar, or if it’s too thick, add a bit more liquid.
6. Glaze the Cake:
   • Once the Bundt cake has cooled completely, drizzle the glaze over the top. Let it set for a few minutes before serving.
7. Serve:
   • Slice and serve the cake for breakfast or brunch. It pairs wonderfully with a hot cup of coffee or tea!
