Fall is upon us and Halloween is right around the corner so what better way than to share a recipe made with pumpkin. On Thanksgiving, everyone was so full from our turducken feast that dessert was pushed till the next day as a late afternoon nibble. The plan was to make a classic pumpkin pie but of course I love to be adventurous and went for a spiced bundt cake instead that would pair well with a nice cup of tea.
INGREDIENTS
3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cloves
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
2 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1/4 maple sugar
1/4 brown sugar
1/4 maple sugar
1/4 brown sugar
1 cup vegetable oil, plus more as needed
4 large eggs
1 can pumpkin purée
INSTRUCTIONS
Time to prep: 15 minutes
Time to cook: 60-70 minutes
Cooling time: 25 minutes
Time to prep: 15 minutes
Time to cook: 60-70 minutes
Cooling time: 25 minutes
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat a bundt pan with vegetable oil along with flour and tap out any excess flour (important!).
Using a stand mixer, combine sugars and measured oil until blended, scraping down the sides of the bowl and the paddle with a rubber spatula. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl and whisk away any lumps then set aside. Add to egg mixture alternately with pumpkin puree, beating well after each addition.
Turn the mixer to low speed, slowly add the reserved flour mixture, and beat until almost completely incorporated. Remove the bowl from the mixer and fold in any unincorporated flour at the edges with the rubber spatula, making sure to scrape to the bottom of the bowl.
Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 60-70 minutes or until toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
