Cherry-Vanilla Bundt Cake
Cut into this sugar-dusted beauty to reveal a river of cherries.
ACTIVE TIME 20 MINUTES
TOTAL TIME 2 HOURS, 20 MINUTES
MAKES 10 SLICES
Baking spray with flour
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. kosher salt
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup plain whole-milk yogurt
2/3 cup neutral oil (such as canola)
2 large eggs, plus 1 egg white
1 Tbsp. pure vanilla extract
1 cup cherry pie filling (from a 21-oz. can)
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
PREHEAT oven to 350°F with rack in center position. Spray a 10-cup Bundt pan with baking spray. (Or use regular cooking spray and dust with flour.)
WHISK flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a large bowl. Whisk granulated sugar, yogurt, oil, eggs, egg white, and vanilla in a separate large bowl. Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients just until smooth.
TRANSFER about two-thirds of batter to prepared pan. Spoon cherry pie filling on top, being careful not to let filling touch sides of pan. Top with remaining batter.
BAKE until a toothpick inserted in center comes out mostly clean, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Let cool in pan for 15 minutes. Invert onto a wire rack, remove pan, and let cool completely, about 1 hour. Dust with confectioners' sugar just before serving.

RECIPES FOR REAL LIFE
THE BEST
Sometimes it's not enough for our editors to be instantly impressed by a product. Sometimes we want to push it to the limits in one of our three labs, our own homes, or both to see how it holds up under pressure. We cook, we wear, we smear, we clean. We evaluate and tally. Then we give out the REAL SIMPLE Selects seal. When we put that label on something, that means it's among the 5,200-plus products we've formally evaluated according to strict protocols. On this list: some of our current faves. If you see something you like, scan the QR code and get shopping!
