MINI PUMPKIN BUNDT CAKES
Cake:
1 cup canola or vegetable oil
1 (15 ounce) can of puréed pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
2 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1 teaspoon cloves
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger (powdered, not fresh)
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
DIRECTIONS:
Cake:
Whisk together oil, sugar, pumpkin, and eggs until smooth. Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined and no lumps of flour remain.
Spray the mini bundt pan liberally with Baker’s Joy (or baking spray and dusted with flour). Fill each bundt just under 2/3 full with batter. Bake at 350 F until cooked through and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. This batch took 15 minutes to bake, but adjust the cooking time if your bundt pan is smaller or larger than the pan I used.
Let the cakes cool in their pan for 5 minutes. If any of the cakes have domed up over the bundt cavity, use a serrated knife to gently shave off the top of the dome off (see pictures above). This will enable the bundt cakes to sit flat on a platter. Let cool completely and decorate with sugar and cinnamon or a glaze.
