With tasty and amazing flavors and easy ingredients, this Honey Citrus Spiced Bundt Cake is absolutely wonderful, filling and the perfect cake to make any time.

I love a good bundt cake, I also love playing around with flavors. This Honey Citrus Spiced Bundt Cake has so many amazing flavors that play very well together.

Honey and citrus are two of my favorite flavors but add some warming spices in there, and you have a cake that is comforting and flavorful all at the same time.

While you can make this cake any time of the year, I really love making it in the fall. You don’t normally think too much of citrus in the fall but bundled with the spice, it is the perfect warming cake recipe.

This has become a regular cake on our rotation and one that we love to bring to any holiday or fall get-together. Everyone begs me for the recipe every single time.

For good reason too, once you sink your teeth into a bite of this cake, you will absolutely know what I’m talking about.

HOW TO MAKE A HONEY CITRUS SPICED BUNDT CAKE:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Prep your bundt pan by spraying with non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, ginger, baking powder, salt, baking soda, nutmeg, cloves and allspice, set aside.
In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, vegetable oil, melted butter and brown sugar.
Next, add all of the eggs and whisk until fully incorporated.
Add in the honey and milk and whisk together.
Then, add in the orange and lemon zest and mix to combine.
Add the flour mixture to the wet mixture and mix only until the flour is incorporated.
Pour the cake batter into the prepared bundt pan and smooth out.
Place into the oven to bake for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with moist crumbs. Once baked, remove from the oven and place onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
To remove the bundt cake from the pan, flip the cake pan over onto a serving tray or cake stand and gently tap around on the exterior of the bundt pan to release the cake.
To make the glaze, whisk both of the ingredients together in a small bowl until a glaze is formed.
Drizzle the glaze over the top of the warm cake. Slice and serve.

WHAT IS THE TASTE AND TEXTURE OF THIS CAKE?

Soft, tender, moist bundt cake is filled with the flavors of warm spices, sweet honey, and tasty orange and lemon.

It is topped with a simple orange glaze that adds moisture and flavor.

DO I HAVE TO USE FRESH ORANGE JUICE FOR THE GLAZE?

Fresh squeezed orange juice is the best for this flavor-wise, and since you will be using orange zest, you might as well just use the juice.

If need be, you can use bottled orange juice if you want.

WHAT SIZE BUNDT PAN DO I NEED?

This uses your standard 10-12 cup bundt pan, but you can also use a tub pan for this.

HOW TO STORE:

To store cover the cake or place it in an airtight container where it will last on the countertop for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

This can also be frozen, wrap your cake in plastic wrap and then foil and place in a freezer container, this should keep for up to 3 months.

To defrost, remove to the refrigerator or the countertop until thawed. You can choose to freeze this glazed or not, if not then make your glaze and then pour on after defrosting.

TIPS AND TRICKS:

This cake is exceptionally delicious when it is either warm or chilled. It is very good at room temperature as well, however, the texture and flavors seem to pop more when it is warm or cold.
This can be frozen, see above on how to do that.
We like to use fresh orange juice for the glaze, but you can use bottled if needed.
Make sure that you grease your pan before baking.
If you do not want to glaze this, you can add some powdered sugar to the top.
For the glaze you can use lemon juice or milk if you want a less citrus flavor.
