• 1 cup 1 cup pumpkin puree (240 g) – Fresh or canned works great.

Time to Cook

Prep: 15 minutes | Cook: 45 minutes | Total: 1 hour | Difficulty: Easy | Make-Ahead: Yes, you can prepare it a day in advance.

Steps to Make It

1. Preheat your oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Grease a Bundt pan with butter and dust it with flour. This helps the cake come out easily after baking.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. You should see a pale yellow color forming, which means you’re on the right track.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. The mixture should be smooth and slightly thickened, giving you a good base for your cake.
4. Stir in the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract. The batter will become a beautiful orange color, and the aroma will start to fill your kitchen.
5. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
6. If you’re using nuts, fold them in gently at this point. The batter should look thick and creamy, ready to be poured into your prepared Bundt pan.
7. Pour the batter into the pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Once baked, let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely. The cake should be golden brown and firm to the touch.
9. Slice and serve your Bundt cake warm or at room temperature. It pairs wonderfully with coffee or tea, making for a delightful breakfast treat.

Make It Perfect

• For a sweeter touch, drizzle a simple glaze made of powdered sugar and milk over the cooled cake.
• If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
• You can freeze the Bundt cake for up to three months. Just wrap it tightly in plastic wrap before freezing.

Mix It Up

• Try adding chocolate chips for a sweet surprise.
• Substitute the pumpkin with mashed bananas for a different flavor profile.

Perfect Partners

• Serve with whipped cream for an indulgent treat.
• Pair with fresh fruit like berries or sliced bananas.
