Ingredients
- 150g butter, softened
- 80g almonds, chopped
- 75g brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
- 375g Plain Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon Bicarbonate of Soda
- 1⁄4 teaspoon Seal Fine Salt
- 180g sugar
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons vanilla essence
- 180ml sour cream

Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 170°C. Butter six mini Bundt pans, set aside.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, combine almonds, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside. In another medium bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt, set aside.
Step 3
In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine 90g butter and sugar. Beat on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add egg, beat until combined. Add 1 tablespoon vanilla essence, and beat until smooth. Add 1/3 of reserved flour mixture and half of sour cream, beat to combine. Repeat. Add final third of flour mixture, and beat to combine.
Step 4
Fill each Bundt pan with 3 tablespoons batter, and spread evenly. Sprinkle each with 2 tablespoons of reserved almond-spice mixture. Top with additional 3 tablespoons batter. Bake until cakes are golden brown, about 20 minutes. Transfer cakes to a wire rack to cool. Unmold cakes and place at sides down, on a wire rack placed over a baking pan.
Step 5
Melt the remaining butter until colour turns nut brown, about 5 minutes. Pour butter into a medium bowl and stir in icing sugar, remaining vanilla essence, and milk until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over cakes and serve.
