Also great as minis!

How’d it go? Tell us everything!
I made this recipe this morning and it’s DELISH. Made them as muffins- took 30 minutes. Will serve for holiday “break fast” later this week. I did not add any extra sugar or cinnamon on top and they are still perfect! Thank you!
We’re so glad they worked out for you. Shana tova!
Would all purpose flour be acceptable as I am out of whole wheat?
Yes! You can mix and match flours as you see fit 😊
Do you think you could use coconut oil?
Thank you!! So looking forward to making these into muffins, as we don’t have the bundt pan 🙁
I think coconut oil would work but would give you a slight taste of coconut (as the other ingredients don’t have strong flavors).
Hi Shalva! This is your actual mother writing (and qvelling) about your connection to this recipe. Just adding that I am using your great-grandmother Ann’s Nordic Ware bundt pan again this year. Can you imagine how much Jewish mother love has gone into that pan over the years? Happy New Year to all!
Love taking a min while baking to think of all of the special women who have passed on their traditions. Maybe that’s why we mark special occasions by celebratory foods?
This was delicious! I was skeptical about using the Vitamix to do all the prep, but I went for it, and it worked! The cake was moist and dense just like you said (which I love). I cut down the brown sugar to 2/3 cup (unpacked), and that didn’t seem to hurt it at all. Made muffins (baked for 35 minutes) because I don’t have a bundt pan. Thanks for the recipe–will make again.
Making into muffins is a great idea! I’ll bet our kids would love those.
I wonder if I could use coconut sugar?
I think that would work great in this recipe!
I am a Jewish girl that misses part of my culture with all the egg recipes. I just switched to being a vegan because of health concerns and OMG this recipe was AMAZING!!!!! The outline of logical steps in the recipe was so thoughtful. I am grateful to be reminded myself Grandmothers cake!!! It is truly delish
This comment just made my day 🙂 Now to tackle an eggless kugel 😉
Can’t wait to try it. 1 question as I don’t bake as much as I used to: If I make mini Bundts which is more likely, how much time would you give them in the oven? The other question is, I don’t use whole wheat flour at all, it just tears up my stomach; do you think a mix of maybe almond, coconut and/or rice flour (or some other non wheat) would work almost as well? Thanks!
Hi Donna, good question! I baked the mini bundts for 15 minutes and then checked them every 3. I believe they only took 18 min, but every oven is different, so make sure to check (undercooked is better in this case). I mixed almond flour with wheat flour, and have not tried w/o at least some wheat flour. I’m sure with a little trial and error you can find a good combination of flours that don’t upset your stomach. The courser the better I would say (so almond over coconut or rice). Good luck, let us know how they turn out!
