The great thing about bundt cakes is that they are typically easy to make but look fancy. This Brown Butter Glazed Bundt Cake Recipe is perfect for special occasions, parties, bake sales or potlucks. The cake is super moist with a wonderfully deep flavor, thanks to Musselman’s Apple Butter. The brown butter glaze adds a unique twist to the traditional vanilla glaze.

Musselman’s Apple Butter is one of my favorite ‘secret ingredients’, especially in baked goods. It adds so much to a recipe. My apple butter dessert recipes are always a hit! People love the flavor yet can’t quite figure out what it is.

The brown butter glaze makes this cake! It is a nice change from plain or vanilla glaze. It is easy to create brown butter. But don’t walk away from the pan, once the butter begins to brown it happens fast!

Grab a slice . . . or two.
