Pumpkin Cream Cheese Bundt Cake

Flavorful, moist, perfectly spiced and filled with cream cheese, this Pumpkin Cream Cheese Bundt Cake is all you need this fall.  

The best combination of pumpkin and cream cheese but the cream cheese is layered on the inside instead of iced on top.  There are so many ways to use pumpkin in the fall and I love all the options but there is nothing better than a classic bundt cake.  Moist in texture and full of so much flavor, this pumpkin cream cheese bundt cake will be perfect for a breakfast treat with coffee or served for dessert.   

How To Make Pumpkin Cream Cheese Bundt Cake
This bundt cake could not be easier to make.  No mixer required combine the dry ingredients, flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger and salt, in one bowl and the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, eggs and pumpkin puree in another bowl.  Whisk together the dry ingredients with the liquid ingredients until the batter is smooth and creamy.  The cream cheese filling is the next best thing that makes this pumpkin bundt cake extra special.  Although I love cream cheese frosting paired with a pumpkin bundt cake, I love cream cheese filling even more. Fill half of the bundt pan with the pumpkin cake batter and then evenly spread the cream cheese filling over the batter.  Finish layering with the remainder of the pumpkin bundt cake batter to create a perfectly moist and flavor cake.    

Cinnamon Sugar Topping
Added texture and flavor, cinnamon sugar topping gives a slight crunch and a perfect sparkle to finish this bundt cake off.  Once the bundt cake is baked and removed from the bundt cake, brush the melted butter over the top of the bundt cake and then immediately sprinkle the top with cinnamon sugar.
