Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 10-inch tube pan or a sheet cake pan.

Step 2.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups flour, 1 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp baking powder, and ½ tsp salt. Set aside.
-
Step 3.
In a large bowl, cream together ½ cup butter and 1¼ cups sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 2 eggs, one at a time, then stir in 1½ tsp vanilla.
-
Step 4.
Mix in 1 cup sour cream until well combined. Gradually add the flour mixture, stirring just until incorporated.
-
Step 5.
Spread half of the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle generously with cinnamon-sugar and ½ cup chopped nuts.

Step 6.
Spread the remaining batter over the filling, then top with more cinnamon-sugar.

Step 7.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes to 1 hour, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack.
