Ciambellone is a classic Italian breakfast cake also referred as pound cake or bundt cake, not to confuse it with the small ‘Ciambella’ (similar to a doughnut). Every Italian family has its own recipe that they guard jealously. In our family, Nonna’s make the best bundt cake, at least for me. I love it as it has very little sugar and it’s very soft inside and crunchy on the outside, perfect to enjoy at breakfast time to dunk in milk and also as a healthy snack or brunch (we call it Sdijuno in Abruzzo). In the afternoon, I usually prefer it with a generous layer of organic homemade jam.
