Today I have a poppy seed bundt cake, but not just any ordinary bundt cake, but a yeast one. Such a yeast poppy seed bundt cake is a classic recipe for yeast dough, which is baked in a bundt pan and has a delicious poppy seed and dried fruit filling.

Yeast Poppy Seed Bundt Cake – Notes

And I made another poppy seed roll for the holidays.

This time, a poppy seed bundt cake appeared at our place.

I prepared a delicate yeast dough and a simple poppy seed filling from ground poppy seeds and baked everything together in a bundt pan.

Finally, a thick layer of chocolate and it’s ready!

You can add various dried fruits to the poppy seed filling – I opted for just chopped nuts, because my children don’t like raisins and orange peel.

If it weren’t for them, there would be more going on in this filling :)

I also recommend you try my other recipes for poppy seed rolls and poppy seed cakes :)
