Fall in love with this Cornmeal Bundt Cake with Dulce de Leche Sauce recipe. It's very easy to make and the taste is just amazing!

Cornmeal Bundt Cake with dulce de leche sauce

We've had the bundt cake pan used in this recipe for a while and we were never able to unmold a cake that wouldn't stick on the pan. But we gave the pan a last chance with a technique we had learned and YES, we got the perfect Cornmeal Bundt Cake! To unmold the cake easily we greased the pan with butter and put it in the fridge for a few minutes. It worked like magic!

Now about this cake. Cornmeal cakes are popular in Brazil so I needed to share this recipe with you for 3 reasons: 1) this cake is amazing 2) I love sharing Brazilian classics so you can learn and taste different recipes and 3) I'm completely in love with dulce de leche, so I think everything tastes good with it 🙂

By the way, if you want to make your own dulce de leche I have 2 recipes:
