Description

Spiced Bundt Cake with Glaze is a moist, aromatic cake infused with warm spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves, baked in a classic Bundt pan and topped with a sweet vanilla or maple glaze — perfect for fall gatherings and holiday desserts.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/4 cups brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sour cream or plain yogurt
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • For the glaze:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 23 tbsp milk or maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a Bundt pan thoroughly.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla extract.
  5. Mix in sour cream and milk until smooth.
  6. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until combined.
  7. Pour batter evenly into the prepared Bundt pan and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for 45–55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let cool in pan for 15 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. For the glaze, whisk together powdered sugar, milk (or maple syrup), and vanilla until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled cake before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure the Bundt pan is well-greased to prevent sticking.
  • Spices can be adjusted to taste — add cardamom or allspice for variation.
  • The cake can be made a day ahead and glazed before serving.
  • Optional: add chopped nuts or raisins for texture and extra flavor.
