Description

One 10-cup Bundt cake for twelve slices.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons Ground ginger
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon Fine salt
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup Light brown sugar, packed
  • 3/4 cup Unsulfured molasses
  • 2 eggs Large eggs
  • 3/4 cup Whole milk
  • 1 cup Confectioners' sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 350°F. Thoroughly grease and lightly flour every ridge of a 10-cup Bundt pan. Whisk 2 1/2 cups flour, 1 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp baking soda, 2 tsp ginger, 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon and 1/2 tsp salt.
  2. Beat 1/2 cup softened butter and 3/4 cup packed brown sugar until creamy. Beat in 3/4 cup unsulfured molasses, then 2 eggs one at a time. Add the dry mixture in three portions alternating with 3/4 cup milk; stop when no dry streaks remain. Scrape batter evenly into prepared pan.
  3. Bake at 350°F approximately 45–55 minutes until a tester through the cake crumb, away from the pan center, emerges without wet batter. Cool in pan 15 minutes, loosen gently, invert onto a rack and cool about 65 minutes until no warmth remains.
  4. Whisk 1 cup confectioners' sugar with up to 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice for a slow-drizzling glaze. Spoon over the completely cooled cake and let set about 15 minutes before cutting twelve slices. Test pan release, center bake and actual glaze opacity before finalizing.
