A moist pumpkin cake topped with a sweet, spiced crumble, perfect for fall brunches or cozy afternoons.

Ingredients

  • For the Cake: 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 cup pumpkin puree (not pie filling), 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • For the Crumble Topping: 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, and salt for the cake.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree and buttermilk.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the pumpkin-buttermilk mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  8. To make the crumble topping, combine the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and pumpkin pie spice in a medium bowl.
  9. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  10. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the cake batter.
  11. Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  12. Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can add 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts to the crumble topping.
  • This cake is delicious served warm or at room temperature.
  • Store any leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
