Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup maple syrup
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • ¼ cup oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 ½ cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

For the glaze (optional):

  • 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
  • 1 ½ - 2 tablespoons milk

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease a 10 or 12 cup bundt pan with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine maple syrup, buttermilk, oil, pumpkin puree, and eggs.
  • Then, in another bowl, combine all dry ingredients: whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt.
  • Add flour mixture to the batter 1/3 at a time, letting the flour incorporate with each addition and continue mixing just until well combined.
  • Pour the batter into the bundt mold then bake for 50-55 minutes.
  • Leave the cake to cool completely.
  • For the glaze:
    Whisk together the powdered sugar and 1 1/2 tablespoons of milk. Add a little bit more milk, a few drops at a time, just until the glaze reaches a thick but runny texture.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the top of the cake.
  • Slice and enjoy.
