Pumpkin Gingerbread is my recipe of the day with the blogging group Bundt Bakers. We group monthly to bake up delicious recipes using out Bundt pans. Sometimes they are cake, at others, breads. And occasionally other types of foods.

This month we are sharing “twisted” gingerbread recipes. I have twisted mine with a bit of pumpkin. It’s a perfect fall and winter treat.
Plus it helps us use up any pumpkin we have remaining before the new year. Not that we can’t eat this all year long. It’s a perfect snacking “cake”!
