31 of the Best Fall Cake Recipes

Even though we have another week of summer, we have already had a few cool nights here in Maine. The fall weather will soon be upon us and that is the time that I love to bake! With the abundance of pumpkins and apples and all things fall, there is nothing like a big chunk of pumpkin pound cake with a cup of coffee to get you started in the morning.

My famous apple cake will be your favorite cake this year. I have so many readers that agree that it really is the best apple cake recipe and that they won’t ever try another recipe. You be the judge of that!

I also have some chocolate cake recipes that you will want to write home about and my Preacher Cake is famous for feeding a hungry crowd. Have you ever tried a Hummingbird Cake? It’s a fabulous Southern recipe that is loved by so many. If you are looking for a pumpkin treat for one, check out the easy mug cake recipe!

My round up of 31 of the best fall cake recipes will guide you through the bountiful fall weather. Not sure where to start first? Try the easy Pumpkin Crumb Cake for when you have friends over. I dare you to try not to nibble at the crumb before everyone arrives! My Vanilla Wafer Cake is a family favorite that my daughter loves to bake, knowing that it was her great-great grandmother’s recipe.

Whatever recipe that you do desire to try first, I hope that you enjoy baking a fall treat as much as I do and have a delicious fall!
