all-in-one holiday bundt cake {bwd}



What are your favorite flavors of autumn? Is it pumpkin? Cinnamon? Apple? Cranberries? Pecans? How about all of the above, wrapped up into one delectable bundt cake?

That is exactly what the bakers at Baking With Dorie Greenspan baked this past week.  I was very excited to tackle the recipe —then the storm came and potatoes and cookies upended my baking schedule, but here the cake is, a little late, but in all its seasonal glory.

It's wonderful for breakfast or with a mid-afternoon snack. The cake is moist and lightly spiced, the cranberries are tart, the pecans add a nice crunch to it. I didn't have the time, but I would suggest toasting the pecans before adding them to the batter.

I often have problems with removing the bundt cake from its pan, but after many miserable, disastrous attempts, I've learned my lesson: butter every nook and cranny thoroughly!

Thanks to Chaya for choosing such a tasty cake. You can get the recipe from her site Bizzy B. Bakes.

  2. The color for comments barely shows. I think you need a little darker color. I almost gave up and didn't leave a comment but I had to tell you what a beauty you ended up with. All the colors are wonderful and I know it is a delicious cake. Thanks for baking with me.
