This past weekend my sister, Beth, hosted Sunday Dinner for everyone. I thought it might be nice to make a dessert with some autumnal flavors, but I also wanted to steer clear of the traditional apple or pumpkin pie. I didn’t want us to be burnt out on pie before Thanksgiving is even here.
After a little internet searching, I found a recipe for Pumpkin Pound Cake with Cinnamon Glaze. There is just something about the combination of pumpkin and cinnamon that says comfort. It was absolutely delicious!
There are two things I wanted to note, the original recipe calls for the use of a bunt pan. I do not have one, so I just used my spring form pan that I make cheesecakes in, and it worked perfectly fine. I even used the same baking time and temperature as the recipe.
Also, just a note about the glaze. You can see from the picture below it is more of a frosting. Is there anyone that doesn’t like frosting? (crickets chirping) Didn’t think so.
This was a perfect addition to our Sunday dinner, and I am thinking of making it again for another fall gathering coming up.
Linking up at Centsational Girl today with a bunch of other comfort food recipes. Check it out for some great comfort food recipes to add to your autumn menu.

Oh my, that looks so good. I could lick the icing right off the screen.
Wow, that looks so great! My parents are coming this weekend and this might be coming too! We love anything pumpkin!
