Instructions
- Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper. - Make the Cake Batter:
In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until smooth and well combined. - Prepare the Streusel Topping:
In a small bowl, mix flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add cold butter cubes and use a fork or pastry cutter to blend until the mixture forms coarse crumbs. - Assemble:
Pour the pumpkin cake batter into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the batter. - Bake:
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. - Make the Glaze:
Whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled coffee cake. - Serve:
Slice the cake and serve warm or at room temperature.
