Ingredients

2 cups flour

3 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ginger

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Pinch of cloves

1 1/4 cups pumpkin puree

½ cup butter (room temperature)

2 cups granulated sugar

2 eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup milk

1/2 cup cold butter, cubed (1 stick)

1 cup light brown sugar

1 cup flour

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.
  3. In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat together the butter and pumpkin puree until well distributed. It’s okay if it’s not totally smooth.
  4. Add the sugar and beat until well combined. Then beat in the eggs and vanilla.
  5. Add the flour mixture to the mixing bowl in three additions, alternating with the milk. Beat on low speed until there are no white streaks remaining. Set the batter aside.
  6. To make the crumb topping, combine all ingredients in a medium bowl. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to cut in the cold butter until it forms small crumbs.
  7. Pour half the pumpkin batter into the prepared dish. Layer with half the crumb mixture, then top with the remaining batter. Finish with the remaining crumbs on top.
  8. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

Add chopped walnuts or pecans to the crumb topping for extra flavor.

Drizzle a simple glaze over the top for a sweet finish.

Adjust spices like cinnamon or ginger to suit your preferences.

Use gluten-free flour for a gluten-free version.
