Can you use any cake recipe in a bundt pan?

Do you have to add/reduce flour or do something else to get it to bake up right? I want the shape of a bundt, but I prefer to mix my cakes from scratch rather than use a mix, and I don't have any recipes that call for bundt pans.

    Sure can. But here is a link to nearly 300 recipes that DO call for a bundt pan...

    A bundt pan is best used with a moderate or heavy batter (butter cakes, pound cakes, etc.) Angel food doesn't usually turn out of the pan in one piece because bundt pans are usually too ornate to be cleanly loosened from an angelfood cake.

    I have never had a problem getting a regular butter cake out of any of my bundt pans, but the secret is to make certain every speck of the interior is oiled and floured first.

    Use dry cocoa to "flour" the oiled pan for a chocolate cake and it will not show white streaks on the exterior of your finished cake.

    I love to use the oil & flour sprays in the bakery section of the supermarket, but my least favorite of these, ironically, is the Baker's Joy brand.

    Good luck with your baking!

    Yes it takes a bit more ingredients for the bundt pan so you really need to find a recipe designed for the bundt...

    If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://biturl.im/aU75k

    The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true

    sure, you just may have to adjust your cooking time if the pan is larger or smaller than the size the recipe calls for. You shouldn't have to change the recipe.... pan dictates shape, not ingredients :)
