Ingredients

Pumpkin Cake

  • 3 cups (375g) all-purpose flour 
  • 1 tbsp pumpkin pie spice (or 2 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp nutmeg, and 1/2 tsp ginger)
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¾ cup (180ml) vegetable oil 
  • 1 & ½ cups (300g) lightly packed brown sugar 
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup (120ml) sour cream
  • 15oz can (1 & 3/4 cups) canned pumpkin puree

Streusel 

  • 1 & 1/3 cups (166g) all-purpose flour 
  • 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar 
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice or ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup (114g) unsalted butter, melted

 

Optional Glaze

  • ½ cup powdered sugar 
  • 1 tbsp milk or cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F and line a 9×13″ pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, toss together the flour, spices, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, brown sugar, eggs, sour cream, and pumpkin puree.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Spoon the batter into the prepared pan and spread out evenly. Set aside.
