This cake is so good that you don’t even need a glaze or anything. We’ll sometimes have it with whipped cream or a scoop of French Vanilla ice cream when we have people over, but I could eat it plain all the time. It’s really dense and heavy, and it’s very simple to make. It can even be used as a breakfast bread.
Pumpkin Bundt Cake
15 oz. can pumpkin (or make your own)
4 eggs
1 c. light flavor olive oil
1/2 c. water
3-1/2 c. flour (I use white whole wheat.)
3 c. sugar
1 T. pumpkin pie spice
2 t. baking soda
1-1/2 t. salt
Combine pumpkin, eggs, oil, and water. Mix well.
Mix in the dry ingredients, and mix well.
Pour into a bundt pan that has been coated with cooking spray.
Bake 1 hour and 30 minutes at 350 degrees.

Thanks for hosting. 🙂 I love pumpkin goodies too, especially since they make the house smell so good when they’re baking.

Sounds awesome. Could it be made in a 9×12 pan as well?
I would love for you to hop over and share this recipe on my mommy solution meme!

Good question about the other pan. I just tried putting half of it in a bread pan, and it didn’t come out so well. So I’d hesitate to make that change myself.

Back to update: I have made this recipe three times now–it is THAT good (and I have 7 kids, LOL)!
In reply to previous comment regarding using a different pan size(reply button doesn’t want to work for me, sorry):
I divide the batter into two 11×7 pans, and bake for about 50 min, or until it tests “done.” It turns out beautifully!( I did try a 9×13 pan first, and it was fine, just got darker around the edges in order to get it done in the middle.) HTH!
Jennifer says
I just made this again last night too. 🙂 Thanks for the info about the pans. My experiment didn’t work well, so I’m glad yours did!
