Pumpkin pound cake with maple cream glaze

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Grease and flour a bundt pan.  In a large bowl, mix oil, eggs, sugar and vanilla. Add cinnamon, salt, baking soda and stir until combined. Add pumpkin with a spatula and mix well. Add flour and stir until just combined. Do not over mix the batter, as the cake will become tough!  Pour into prepared pan and bake until a toothpick comes out clean, about 45 minutes to an hour depending on the heat of your oven.   For the glaze, mix all ingredients and whisk until very smooth and the right consistency to drizzle over the cake. Set aside. When the cake is cool, turn out onto a baking rack. Place some foil or parchment under the rack to catch the excess glaze.  Using a fork, drizzle the glaze back and forth over the cooled cake. Make sure the cake is very cool before you glaze it or it will run off the cake!
