Ingredients

Cake

  • 1/2 cup butter {melted}
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup brown sugar {packed}
  • 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 1/4 cup flour

Topping

  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 8x8 square baking pan with non-stick spray. Combine melted butter, egg, brown sugar, pumpkin puree and vanilla in a medium bowl, making sure that the butter isn’t too warm or the egg will scramble. Mix until everything is well combined. Add the pumpkin pie spice, salt, baking powder and flour to the pumpkin mixture and stir until incorporated. Pour into greased 8x8 pan. In a small bowl combine the topping ingredients and sprinkle liberally over the top of the cake. Bake for 25-27 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Serve warm or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature.
