Sweet Potato Pound Cake
This bundt cake has a dense but moist crumb and a simple glaze with maple syrup. It's sweet and flavorful, with the unmistakable warmth of Fall spices. It's just plain wonderful. It keeps well for several days and can be frozen.

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
OR 4 teaspoons apple pie spice (instead of the three spices above)
