Pumpkin Spice Bundt Cake with Brown Sugar Glaze is a guest post by contributing author, Andrea Ferenchik. She’s sharing her Aunt Marie’s favorite pumpkin cake recipe today.

Pumpkin Spice Bundt Cake with Brown Sugar Glaze

My Aunt Marie is an amazing woman! I had the opportunity to spend time with her this summer at her house. It was so nice to be able to chat with her and hear stories about my dad’s family that I’ve never heard before. She lives on a horse farm and to this day works in the barn and stays extremely active. She lost her beloved Terry, her husband of 49 years almost three years ago to cancer. It was incredibly sad but her outlook on life is so positive. She said, “Andrea, Terry and I had the same interests, we built this beautiful farm, and raised this wonderful family. He’d want me to enjoy it and be happy.”

Growing up, food and baking were always a big part of our family gatherings. Nothing gourmet, just tasty family recipes that never disappointed (except for maybe fruitcake.) My Aunt Marie makes a simple, but delicious Pumpkin Spice Bundt Cake. In honor of Fall, I thought I’d make it and share it with you. For the sake of the photos, I decided to add a glaze to it but Aunt Marie enjoys it plain. She says it keeps well and is always moist.

Aunt Marie drove with her granddaughter down to college to keep her company and stopped along the way so I was lucky to be able to grab some pictures of her and I also asked if she would write out the recipe. I think it’s so important to have family recipes handwritten. One day this may become a lost art with blogs and online recipes.

    Hi , thank you for sharing this recipe recipe, I made it for our Canadian thanksgiving to replace pumpkin pie.
    I will make slight d’ajustements, less sugar.
    . A bit tricky for the glaze. Recipe ended up looking like real icing instead of Glaze.
    Will use my rum cake glaze next time. Will keep you posted. Merci 🍁🌾

      Hello! The recipe calls for 15 ounces of pumpkin puree so that would be about 1 3/4 cups of fresh, mashed pumpkin. If you have a kitchen scale, you could weigh it. Hope that helps.
