Step-by-Step Method
Preheat and prep the pan
Heat the oven to 180°C / 350°F. Grease and lightly flour your cake pan so the cake releases easily.
Mix the wet base
Beat the egg in a bowl. Add sour cream and water, then whisk until smooth.
Add the sugars
Stir in the granulated sugar and brown sugar. Mix for 1–2 minutes so the sugars start to dissolve.
Season with cinnamon
Add the cinnamon and give it a quick mix. Keep it simple—just until evenly combined.
Bake
Pour the batter into the prepared pan right away. Bake for about 45 minutes; a toothpick in the center should come out clean.
Cool briefly
Let the cake rest in the pan for 10 minutes. Turn it out onto a plate or rack and cool until just warm.
Make the glaze
Put the powdered sugar in a bowl. Add milk gradually and stir until thick but pourable; adjust with a splash of water or extra milk if needed.
Glaze and serve
Drizzle the glaze over the slightly warm cake. If you like, dust a tiny pinch of cinnamon on top. Slice and serve.
