  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 1 cup vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
  • 1 15 oz can pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)

  • 1/2 cup buttermilk or whole milk
  • For the Glaze Optional:

  • 2 –3 tbsp milk adjust for desired consistency

  • A pinch of ground cinnamon optional, for flavor

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven:
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-cup bundt pan thoroughly to ensure easy release.
  • Mix the Dry Ingredients:
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
  • Mix the Wet Ingredients:
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and oil until smooth.
  • Add the pumpkin puree and mix until well combined.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract and buttermilk.
  • Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Bake the Cake:
  • Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  • Bake for 55–65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15–20 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Make the Glaze (Optional):
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of cinnamon until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk if needed.
  • Glaze the Cake:
  • Once the cake has cooled completely, drizzle the glaze over the top, allowing it to drip down the sides.
