Pumpkin Bundt Cake Recipe Ingredients:

• White Sugar
• Vegetable Oil

• All-Purpose Flour
• Salt
• Baking Powder
• Ground Cloves
• Ground Cinnamon
• Nutmeg

Pumpkin Spice Bundt Cake Directions

Preheat your oven to 350

** Once again I throw everything in my Kitchen Aid starting at the top and working my way down. My neighbor has these directions from her recipe but I am too lazy to follow the steps. **

In a large mixing bowl, sift flour and combine with the dry ingredients

Cream oil and sugar in a separate large mixing bowl

Whip the eggs with oil and sugar, then mix in the canned pumpkin.

Add the flour and dry ingredients into the large mixing bowl with the wet ingredients

Pour into greased Bundt pan

Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes or so until done; use a toothpick or long skewer to test the cake is baked.

Coo in the bundt pan, and then use a spatula to loosen the sides o the cake.

Flip the pan to get the cake out. I use a spatula to loosen mine up more. Losing a small piece of the cake to the pan is normal, even with greasing the bundt pan.

Serve with cool whip or cream cheese frosting. Trust me the cream cheese frosting makes for a perfect pumpkin cream cheese bundt cake

You can take a tub of Cream Cheese frosting and drizzle it over the cake. I did that, and it was a massive hit with everyone. (You can also try homemade cream cheese frosting)
