Ingredients
 
 

  • 3/4 cup unsalted butter at room temperature
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 3 eggs at room temperature see note
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups sour cream
  • 6 ounces strawberry jam
  • 1 cup diced strawberries approximately 8 fresh

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F°.
  • Combine butter and sugar in a bowl, creaming until light and fluffy (approximately 2-3 minutes on medium-high speed)
  • Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition
    Crack egg into batter.
  • Stir in vanilla
  • Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt
  • Add flour mixture to the creamed mixture alternately with the sour cream, mixing after each addition until just combined
  • Combine jam and strawberries in a separate bowl.
  • Grease and flour your bundt pan
  • Spoon 1/3 of batter into the bundt pan, spreading out evenly.
  • Dollop half of the strawberry mixture. Try to keep it in the middle of the batter, away from the sides of the pan, if possible. This will just make the cake look neater when you take it out of the pan. (Do as I say, not as I do! 😉)
    Layers of batter and jam
  • Repeat these two layers and finish with a layer of batter. Smooth the batter out.
  • Bake for 55-60 minutes. Start testing at 50 minutes with a cake tester or skewer.
  • Let stand for 10 minutes on a rack before turning over to remove from pan.

Notes

You can put your cold eggs into a glass of hot water to help slowly warm them up.
