My wife asked me to make her something Pumpkin flavored so I made her this Pumpkin Spice Cake from Weight Watchers.
Like most cake recipes this one is super simple to make. You combine all the dry ingredients and then all the wet ingredients, whisk together then bake for about 1 hour.
I always recommend dusting the cake pan with a little flour after greasing it to help release the cake after baking. It especially helps when using a bundt pan.
The glaze Included on the recipe card can be considered optional. I've had slices of this delicious pumpkin spice cake with and without the glaze and enjoyed it both ways.
