Method
- 01
Prepare the pan
Grease a Bundt pan well with some of the butter. Preheat the oven to 177 °C.
15 min - 02
Caramelize the sugar
Put one of the two portions of sugar in a pan or saucepan and heat over high heat, stirring constantly, until liquid and deeply brown. Carefully add the water a little at a time, as it may splatter; whisk in the evaporated milk. Remove the mixture from the heat.
- 03
Mix the dry ingredients
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground cloves, and salt.
- 04
Make the batter
In another bowl, beat the remaining butter with the other portion of sugar until creamy. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix them in. Gradually add the flour mixture and caramel liquid in alternating batches, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- 05
Bake and cool
Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and cover it tightly with foil. Bake at 177 °C for 60–75 minutes. Let cool before removing from the pan.
