Pumpkin Cake

Ingredients

  • 1 box yellow cake mix
  • 1 can (13 ounces) pumpkin puree
Glaze
  • 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
  • 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • ¾ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees

  2. Empty cake mix and pumpkin puree into a large bowl using a mixer beat until well incorporated. The batter will be very thick, but will come together nicely. Pour batter into a 7-by-11-by-2-inch baking pan. Bake for 28 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Do not overbake.

  3. Let cool for 5-10 minutes in the pan, then flip onto a platter.

Glaze
  1. While you cake is cooling, combine powdered sugar, apple cider vinegar and pumpkin pie spice. Glaze should be thick but pourable. Add more sugar or vinegar if needed. Pour over the cake while still warm.

  2. Reserve some to pour over each slice when served.

  • Sorry about that Edi. The recipe calls for 1 can (13 ounces) pumpkin puree. We have updated the page.

  • The glaze calls for apple cider but the instructions say apple cider vinegar. Could you clarify which it is?

    • I don't know for sure since I didn't write it, but I would bet it is cider and NOT vinegar. I can only imagine 3 T of vinegar would make a nasty glaze that would ruin this cake. Hope this helps!

      • Surprisingly, this should read "apple cider vinegar" not "apple cider." Thanks for catching that — we've updated the recipe. Please let us know what you think of the final cake!
