Pumpkin Apple Bundt Cake with Maple Glaze
Pumpkin Apple Bundt Cake with Maple Glaze is a cinnamon-spiced pumpkin bundt cake, filled with shredded apple, and topped off with a delectable glaze! It's perfect for any fall gathering or holiday!
A couple of weeks ago we went up to my in-laws' cabin for an entire week. We didn't travel much this summer and while it was nice to be home for the majority of the time, it was also nice to get away with just the four of us. While I baked cookies, pie, and cake, this Pumpkin Apple Bundt Cake was my favorite thing that I baked at the cabin. It is perfectly spiced and just bursting with fall flavors!
Ingredients in Pumpkin Apple Bundt Cake
This bundt cake recipe is fairly basic with flour, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, eggs, sugar, oil, vanilla, canned pumpkin, and shredded apple. It's an easy one-bowl recipe, as I made it by first whisking together the wet ingredients and then adding the dry ingredients in one at a time.
Of course, no bundt cake would be complete without a frosting or glaze. I decided on an irresistible maple glaze. The maple glaze is made with butter, powdered sugar, maple syrup, and milk.
This pumpkin apple cake would be perfect for any fall gathering or holiday. Whether it's after a Sunday supper of chili and cornbread, a fall dinner with friends, or Thanksgiving! This pumpkin bundt cake is sure to be a hit!

Hi Taylor!
I love the flavor combo you have going in this cake. I'm dying to try that maple glaze! Thanks for including my Pumpkin Bundt Cake with Caramel Glaze on your list!
I miss Minnesota, especially at this time of year when the weather is so nice.
All my best, Krista
Is there a measurement for 2 apples? A cup? 2 cups? There is such a variance in Apple size.
It should be about 2-2 1/2 cups. I will put that specification in the recipe - thank you!
Thanks!
So easy to make, super moist and delish! I added orange food colouring to day icing to make it look like a pumpkin and my kids (and hubs) love it! Thank you!
How fun!! Thanks for the review!
