Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground ginger
- 15 ounces Pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
- 0.5 cups Vegetable oil
- 0.5 cups Buttermilk
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-cup bundt pan or spray it with a non-stick baking spray that contains flour.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger until well combined.
In a separate medium-sized mixing bowl, combine pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and fully incorporated.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if a few lumps remain.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for about 15–20 minutes.
Carefully invert the bundt pan onto a serving plate or cake stand and gently release the cake from the pan. Allow it to cool completely before garnishing.
Optional: Dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar for a light, sweet finishing touch before serving.
Slice and enjoy this deliciously spiced pumpkin bundt cake with family and friends!
