In a bowl beat butter, oil, and brown sugar. Next, beat on high for 3 minutes. This allows the butter to lighten and aerate with the sugar.
Add eggs one at the time, beating between each one.
Mix the dry ingredients. In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, salt, ground ginger, pumpkin pie spice, and ground cinnamon. Use a sifter to prevent lumps getting into the batter.
Add in wet ingredients. After you add the wet ingredients into the butter mixture, beat on high for 2 minutes. This adds air to the eggs which will double the cake volume. Don’t skip this step.
Alternate flour mixture and buttermilk. Slowly add these in on low speed. Make sure to scrape the bowl. Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan. See below for pan tips.
Bake the cake. Next, bake the cake with foil for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 20-30 minutes.
Cool the cake. First, let the cake sit in the hot pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer to a cooling rack. If you spray your pan well, it will come right out. Cool the cake completely before glazing.
