Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10-inch (12-cup) fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®).

  2. Combine flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, salt, allspice, and ginger in a medium bowl.

  3. Beat sugar, eggs, oil, and vanilla extract together in a separate bowl until slightly lightened in color. Add carrots and stir to coat. Fold in dry ingredients with a rubber spatula or large spoon until just barely combined with some small clumps, don't use a hand mixer. Pour batter into the prepared pan.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the middle comes out mostly clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Transfer pan to a cooling rack and let cool, right-side up, for 15 minutes. Invert pan onto a plate and gently tap to remove the cake. Let cool completely.

  5. While cake is cooling, whisk butter, orange juice, orange zest, and bourbon together in a small saucepan over medium heat for glaze until boiling. Boil to fuse flavors, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and add powdered sugar, a small amount at a time, whisking until smooth before adding more. When glaze is at your desired consistency, liberally spoon over mostly-cooled cake.

Recipe Yield

1 Bundt(R) cake

Recipe Note

This Bundt® cake has all the spice and texture of a traditional carrot cake, but uses a non-creamy, orange-bourbon glaze which is perfect for those sensitive to dairy. Garnish with coarsely grated orange zest.
