Ingredients
Scale
- For the cake:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
- For the streusel:

- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- ½ cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
- For the glaze (optional):
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2–3 tbsp milk
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Make the streusel: In a bowl, combine brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Cut in butter until crumbly. Set aside.
- In another bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice.
- In a large bowl, whisk pumpkin puree, oil, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, and sour cream until smooth.
- Fold dry ingredients into wet until just combined.
- Pour half the batter into the baking dish, sprinkle half the streusel, then add remaining batter and top with remaining streusel.
- Bake 45–50 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool slightly, then drizzle with glaze before serving.
Notes
- Optional glaze adds a sweet finish, but can be omitted if desired.
- Let the cake cool for 10-15 minutes before glazing to help the glaze set.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for 3–4 days; bring to room temperature or rewarm before serving.
- Leftover cake freezes well; wrap securely and freeze up to 1 month.
