Instructions
For the Cake
- To begin, preheat your oven to 350 ° (F).
- Grease and flour a standard bundt cake pan. (Or use my mixture, see link in post) Set it aside for now.
- Combine the flour, baking soda, spices, and salt in a bowl. Whisk together. Set aside for a moment.
- Whisk the eggs in your mixing bowl.
- Add the oil, applesauce, pumpkin purée, sugars, and vanilla. Whisk together until they are combined.
- Add in the dry ingredients, half at a time. Mix well with a whisk. Scrape the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula to ensure everything is well combined.
- Stir in the chopped pecans.
- Spread the batter into your prepared cake pan, smoothing the top.
- Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until the cake tests done with a wooden skewer.
- Place the cake (in the pan) on a rack to cool for 10 minutes. Then carefully invert the cake onto the rack and remove the pan. Cool completely.
For the Glaze
- When the cake is cooled, combine all of the ingredients in a bowl. Add just enough milk to make the mixture smooth, whisking it all together.
- Drizzle over the top of the cake.
- Enjoy!
Notes
Add between 1/2 - 1 cup of chopped pecans, to taste
