Dash of kosher salt
Three 8-ounce packages cream cheese, softened

Tips:

  • Use fresh pumpkin purée for the best flavor and texture. You can make your own purée by roasting and pureeing a sugar pumpkin, or you can use canned pumpkin purée.
  • Be sure to grease and flour your bundt pan before adding the batter. This will help prevent the gingerbread from sticking to the pan and will make it easier to remove once it is baked.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the gingerbread tough, so mix it just until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Bake the gingerbread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will usually take about 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of your bundt pan.
  • Let the gingerbread cool completely before inverting it onto a serving plate. This will help prevent the gingerbread from breaking.

This pumpkin gingerbread with caramel sauce is a delicious and festive dessert that is perfect for fall and winter gatherings.
