This wonderful recipe is from Kristen Doyle of Just Baking and Dine & Dish. Her version is topped with a regular cream cheese frosting, but we recommend this Dairy-Free / Vegan "Cream Cheese" Frosting. It is just as tasty!

Can this be made in a 10 cup bundt pan?
I think so, but don’t want to make promises! I believe it would fit. You might want to compare it to another bundt pan recipe you have to see if the quantity of ingredients looks about right. Adjust the baking time as needed.
this cake has eggs in it. How is that dairy-free?
Hi Mark, I understand your concern as eggs are often confused for dairy. See this post for clarification: Are Eggs Dairy?
