Pecan Pie Bundt Cake

Pecan Pie Bundt Cake has a pecan-cinnamon filling and a brown sugar glaze. This buttery pound cake tastes great with a cup of coffee and is perfect for fall.

It doesn’t have the gooiness of a pecan pie, but if you’re craving a pound cake, it is absolutely delicious. There are oodles of pecans in this cake. Pecans are one of my favorite things about fall and they taste fabulous with the buttery, dense texture of a pound cake.

How To Make Pecan Pie Bundt Cake

The batter for this Pecan Pie Bundt Cake has dark corn syrup added to make it taste like a pecan pie. You’ll scoop half the batter into a bundt pan and then evenly spoon on a mixture of brown sugar, pecans, and cinnamon. You’ll mix a little of the batter in with this mixture before spooning it on so that the flavors more evenly distribute throughout the cake. You want that deliciousness in every bite.

Then pour on the remaining batter and bake for 60 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes and then invert onto a serving platter or cake stand.

The glaze is a simple mixture of brown sugar, butter, and cream and it adds extra sweetness to the cake.

Recipe Tips

  • Let the eggs and butter sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before baking the cake.
  • You want to liberally spray your bundt pan with a good quality baking spray to prevent sticking. I have not had good luck with buttering and flouring.
