Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 320°F / 160°C. If you are using a fan forced oven, you will need to reduce the temperature by 10 degrees.
- Measure the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and spices into a large mixing bowl (or the bowl of your stand mixer). Stir together thoroughly to break up any lumps of brown sugar.
- Add the butter, eggs, molasses, milk, orange juice and orange zest. Start beating on low speed with a hand or stand mixer, increasing the speed once the ingredients have combined. Don't forget to also crape the bottom and sides of the bowl as needed.
- Mist a Nordic Ware Crown Pan (or any 10-cup / 2.5 liter bundt pan) with cake release or brush with melted butter and dust with flour, shaking out any excess.
- Add the batter and bake for 45-50 minutes or until the cake is springy to the touch and just coming away from the edges of the tin. A cake tester or toothpick should come out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool down in the tin for 10 minutes. Carefully turn the cake out onto a wire rack to cool.
- Combine all the ingredients for the glaze in a small bowl and drizzle over the cake before serving.
