Spiced Pumpkin Pecan Cake
Ingredients
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1 1/4 cups shortening
  • 1 1/4 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius.
2
Next, take a moment to prepare the Bundt pan by coating it with a thin layer of grease and covering it evenly with flour, ensuring an even base for your cake.
3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients of flour, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, ginger, and allspice. Set the mixture aside for later use.
4
Using an electric mixer, combine butter, both sugars, and eggs in a large bowl until you achieve a light and fluffy consistency. Introduce the pumpkin puree into the mixture, blending it seamlessly.
5
Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients you prepared earlier into the wet mixture until a harmonious union is achieved. Stir in chopped pecans to add texture and depth.
6
Pour the cake batter into your prepared Bundt pan, taking care not to overflow it.
7
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to continue cooling.
