Spiced Maple Cake from Half Baked Harvest

Ever since I first saw Tieghan from Half Baked Harvest post her recipe for this Spiced Maple Cake a few weeks ago, I have been itching to make it. So the other night I broke out the eggs and mixing bowl and got to work.

Baking this cake made the entire house smell delicious, leaving each room with a sweet, rich maple syrupy smell that seemed to represent all the warm, comforting feelings this seasons brings. It was like a big, giant hug, and couldn’t we all use more hugs right now?

PJ compared it to more of a crumble than a traditional cake, and I have to agree. The icing was my absolute favorite ever- maple! And by favorite ever, I mean I have never made it before but after I did, it is now my favorite. It was so sweet and yummy and decadent. I highly recommend making this cake to start the new year off right.

Happy baking, friends!!
