It’s Fall! Horray. My birthday and lots and lots of pumpkin. I went into Trader Joe’s a few days ago and they have dozens of pumpkin food items, even dog treats!

There are a gazillion pumpkin cake recipes out there but I recommend you try this one. You can top it with your choice of Vegan Whipped Cream, Powdered Sugar, Vegan Cream Cheese Frosting, or all by itself.

I used half-sized bundt pans and if you don’t have them you can use 2 loaf pans or a 9 x 13″ baking dish.

ENJOY!
