Recipe Corner: Weight Watchers Maple-Glazed Bundt Cakes



I tweaked this recipe a little bit. I will note in the recipe what I changed. Points Value stays the same. This was amazing, tasted like donuts! Yum Yum Yum


Maple-Glazed Bundt Cakes

 

 Points Plus Value 8pp/ Classic Points 6pts
Servings: 6

Ingredients

  • Bundt Cakes:
  • 3 sprays cooking spray
  • 1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg ( I upped this to 1/4 teaspoon)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup plain non fat yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
  • 4 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • Maple Glaze:
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar, sifted
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup 
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (I added this)
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (I added this)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400ºF. Coat a 6-section mini Bundt cake pan with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together egg, Silk soy yogurt, vanilla, maple syrup and butter. Make a small well in the center of dry ingredients. Pour wet ingredients into the well and stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until dry ingredients are moistened, but still a little lumpy. Don't over mix batter or cakes will be heavy.
  4. Divide batter evenly into prepared pan. Bake about 20 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into center of a cake comes out clean. Cool cakes in the pan on a rack for a few minutes, then turn out of the pan and cool completely on rack.
  5. While the cakes are baking, make the glaze by whisking sugar and maple syrup together in a small bowl. Drizzle cooled cakes with maple glaze. Yields 1 cake per serving. 

Note: In the picture below I decided to make one big bunt cake since I didn't have the proper size mini bunt cake pan. I double the recipe to make it fit in a standard bunt pan. Cut it into 18 slices. Each slice is  5pp/4pts
