Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 4 eggs, large
- 1 can (15 ounces) pure pumpkin puree
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 2 tablespoons milk (for glaze)
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract (for glaze)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt cake pan, ensuring all crevices are coated to prevent sticking.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Add the eggs to the butter and sugar mixture, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Mix in the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients in three additions, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix on low speed after each addition, just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
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 into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then carefully invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
While the cake cools, prepare the glaze. Whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk (if too thick) or powdered sugar (if too thin).
Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the glaze over the top of the bundt cake, allowing it to drip down the sides.
Slice, serve, and enjoy your delicious pumpkin bundt cake!
