Wow this is really good cake. The flavors combine well. I didn't use the pecans. The apple cider makes this taste like Autumn. I didn't have a bundt pan, so I made this in a 9" springform pan with great results. I love how the outside of the cake is a tad chewier than the inside. The cake still held up well the next day. I made Syndey Mike's Recipe #209673 to go with it and the flavors were AMAZING! Made and reviewed for Bevy Tag 08. Thanks :)

5 plus stars for the ease in which this went together and for the all-over good smell it emoted. I made this for the coffee/cafe I work for as we sell bundt cake by the slice. It's went over in a huge way. I especially love the addition of applecider in place of water. An x-tra little kick. I used a glaze mixture of powdered sugar and a cheese-cake Torani syrup. I love the x-tra crucnh the nut mixture gives this. So moist and yummy. Thanks for a keeper Kim~~ Made for PRMR.

This is a lovely cake Kim. We really enjoyed the soft, moist texture and the unique flavor of this delicious treat, the pecans and cinnamon in the middle were a nice touch. It was quick and easy to make, smelled incredible while baking and tasted even better. Thanks so much for sharing.

Made for Holiday Tag 2007. Excellent and very moist cake. I made this for my Christmas luncheon at work and everyone loved this cake. It was the most popular dessert there. I had canned pumpkin on hand so I added sugar and spices to make it equivalent to pumpkin pie filling. Other than that, I followed the recipe exactly. I will be making this often in the future.

OMG, this is one of my favorite fall cake recipes now! I made this planning to send it to work with my DH, but it smelled so good baking, that only about half made it in! The whole family loved it - this will be one made repeatedly - and so easy too! Thanks for posting Kim!! **Made for Bevy Tag 2007**
