How to Make Maple Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 12-cup fluted tube pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, ½ teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- Fold in 1 cup chopped pecans and ½ cup maple syrup.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together 1 cup powdered sugar, ¼ cup maple syrup, and 2-4 tablespoons milk until smooth. Add more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the glaze evenly over the top.
