How to Make Pumpkin Spice Bundt Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 12-cup bundt pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, and 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree and 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce. Set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted margarine and 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  5. Beat in 4 large egg whites and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the pumpkin mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze: In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons rum (or milk), and 2 tablespoons milk. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the brown sugar is dissolved.
  11. Remove from heat and whisk in 1 cup powdered sugar until smooth.
  12. Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the glaze over the top.
