Warm pumpkin Bundt cake bursting with the flavors of fall!
Looking for a cozy autumn recipe without the grains? This tried-and-true Bundt cake recipe is made with almond and coconut flour. The gluten-free mix combines with puréed pumpkin for a thick, tangy batter that bakes perfectly in a Bundt pan!
Preparing the batter is easy – just whisk the wet ingredients together and slowly fold in the sifted dry ingredients. Pro tip: Prepare the batter ahead of time and let it sit in the refrigerator a few hours before baking the cake to allow the batter to thicken. This step isn’t necessary, but if you have the time, it will give the Bundt cake the best texture possible. Just be sure to let the batter come to room temperature before you bake it.
