Instant Pot Easter Bundt Cake
This is one of my favorite cakes. Because it is made in the Instant Pot, it is a moist and tender cake. This is a basic cake recipe that is dressed up for Easter by adding food coloring. This cake looks beautiful when it is sliced thanks to the different colors in the cake batter.

- French vanilla cake mix – Using a cake mix saves time when making this Easter Bundt Cake. You can use your favorite vanilla cake recipe.
- Eggs
- Water
- Oil
- Pink and Yellow gel food coloring – I always recommend using gel food coloring. It gives a bright color to the batter and it doesn’t change the consistency of the cake.
- Whipped white frosting – Using a premade packaged frosting is a time-saving step. You can use a vanilla frosting recipe if you wanted.
- Spring colored sprinkles
How to Make an Easter Bundt Cake in the Instant Pot
Mix together the cake mix and its ingredients.
Divide the cake batter between 2 bowls and add food color to each bowl.
Prepare the bundt pan.
Pour half of the pink batter into the cake pan. Then drop scoopfuls of yellow batter into the pink batter.
Then add the rest of the yellow cake batter on top.
Add water to the Instant Pot and place the trivet inside.
Make a foil sling and use it to lower the cake pan into the Instant Pot.
Cover the pan loosely with foil.
Close the lid and make sure it is set to sealing.
Cook the cake on high pressure for 35 minutes.
Quick pressure release.
Let the cake cool on a cooling rack for 30-60 minutes.
Separate the from the pan with a knife and then empty the cake onto a plate.
Frost the cake and sprinkle the sprinkles.
What Size Bundt Pan Fits in the Instant Pot?
When you are making this Easter bundt cake you want to use a 7 inch cake pan. This is the best size bundt pan size for making cake in the Instant Pot.
Can You Freeze Bundt Cake?
I love to freeze cakes. Freezing this bundt cake lets you have this delicious cake on hand whenever the craving hits. There are two ways to freeze this cake. You can slice the cake and freeze it in individual slices or you can freeze the cake as a whole. If you have added the frosting to the cake, you will want to freeze the cake on a plate first. This prevents the frosting from sticking to the plastic wrap.
