Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • For the Glaze:
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon maple extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-cup Bundt pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and maple syrup.
  6. Alternately add the dry ingredients and the buttermilk mixture to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan.
  8. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. While the cake cools, prepare the glaze. In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, maple syrup, milk, and maple extract (if using) until smooth.
  11. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake.

Notes

  • Ensure your buttermilk and eggs are at room temperature for best results.
  • You can test the cake for doneness by inserting a toothpick or wooden skewer into the thickest part. If it comes out clean, the cake is ready.
  • For an extra touch, you can sprinkle chopped pecans or walnuts over the glaze before it sets.
  • Store any leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
