Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease bundt pan (I use flour baking spray and it works like a charm!) and set aside.
In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugars, baking soda, and ginger until completely combined.
In a saucepan over medium low heat, melt and stir together water, miso pate, oil, and butter. Once fully combined, let cool for 3 minutes, add to dry mixture and mix.
Add in buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla. Stir to combine. Once fully homogenized, pour into your prepared cake pan and bake for 45-55 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cake rest and cool for 25 minutes and then remove from pan.
Miso Caramel Sauce
In a saucepan over medium high heat, melt butter and brown sugar until a thick caramel consistency has been reached and butter no longer floats to the top.
Whisk in miso paste, remove from heat, and transfer to jar or glass measuring cup until cooled.
Once cake has cooled, drizzle caramel sauce on top.
