Description

A warm and fluffy pumpkin coffee cake infused with spices, perfect for fall gatherings.


Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 and 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 and 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 3 tbsp milk
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt (for icing)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch pan.
  2. In a bowl, combine 3 cups all-purpose flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, salt, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice for streusel topping; mix well.
  3. Melt 1 cup of butter and mix into the dry ingredients until it resembles wet sand; refrigerate.
  4. In a stand mixer, whisk together 2 and 1/4 cups flour, 1 and 1/2 cups sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice.
  5. Add butter chunks and pumpkin puree; blend until a cohesive dough forms.
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together remaining pumpkin, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla; add to the batter in three parts, mixing well after each addition.
  7. Spread 2 cups of batter in the greased pan, sprinkle with 1 cup of streusel, then add another 2 cups of batter and top with another cup of streusel.
  8. Finish with remaining cake batter and top with streusel; reserve some for later.
  9. Bake for about 35 minutes, add remaining streusel, then continue to bake for 10-15 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
  10. Let cool for 15-20 minutes on a wire rack.
  11. For the icing, beat butter, vanilla, salt, and milk, then gradually add powdered sugar until smooth; drizzle over the cooled cake.
