Note

For best results, ensure the Bundt pan is well-greased to prevent sticking.

You can adjust the amount of poppy seeds to your preference; 2 tablespoons is a standard amount, but feel free to add more for extra crunch.

If you prefer smaller servings, this batter can also be baked in greased muffin tins for approximately 15-20 minutes at the same temperature.

Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
