How to Make Mini Gingerbread Cakes

  • Before you begin, use baking spray with flour or brush each mini Bundt mold carefully to prevent sticking and ensure clean edges.
  • Start by creaming butter and sugar, then mix in an egg, molasses, and milk.
  • In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt, then stir the dry ingredients into the wet until smooth.
  • Spoon or pipe the batter into a greased mini Bundt pan and bake.
  • Every oven is different, so start checking around the 25-minute mark. The cakes are done when a tester comes out clean.
  • Let the cakes cool completely before drizzling with a simple vanilla icing made from confectioners’ sugar, milk, and vanilla.
  • Sprinkle crushed gingerbread cookies, cinnamon sugar, or holiday sprinkles over the icing for extra festive charm.

Can I make these mini Bundt cakes ahead of time?

Yes! You can bake them a day or two in advance. Store at room temperature in an airtight container or freeze for longer storage.

How do I make the glaze thicker or thinner?

Add more confectioners’ sugar for a thicker glaze or a little extra milk for a thinner drizzle consistency.

How long to bake mini bundt cakes at 350?

Mini Bundt cakes typically bake at 350°F for 20 to 25 minutes. Start checking at the 20-minute mark—when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs, they’re done. Avoid overbaking to keep them soft and moist.
