Today is National Pumpkin Day! What are you doing to celebrate this fall specialty? Admittedly, this wasn't on my list to celebrate today, but I thought it would be fun to feature another fabulous pumpkin bundt that I baked this week. The All-in-One Holiday Bundt recipe was created by Dorie Greenspan and is in her book, Baking From My Home to Yours. (The recipe can also be found here.)
The recipe is a fabulous combination of pumpkin, apples, cranberries, and pecans all of which is laced together with a delicious mixture of warming fall spices such as ginger, nutmeg, and cinnamon. My version baked beautifully and when it came time to guild the lily I opted to make my own cream cheese glaze. The glaze draped the cake beautifully. Toasted pecans added a final touch. I didn't actually get a slice of this bundt, because I packed thecakeinto my trusty Nordic Ware Bundtkeeper and passed it off to my mother in law who needed a little treat for tea time this week.
I'm thinking that today might be a great day to bake one for myself...I do have more Libby'spumpkin puree on deck...
