Pumpkin Coffee Cake

  • 1 3/4 cups (228g) all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons nutmeg
  • 3/4 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup (56g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) vegetable oil
  • 3/4 cup (168g) packed light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (233g) pumpkin puree

Glaze

  • 3/4 cup (86g) powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 23 tablespoons milk or cream
  • Chopped pecans, optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 9-inch springform pan with a circle of parchment paper in the bottom and grease the sides.
  2. To prepare the streusel, add the flour, brown sugar and cinnamon to a medium sized bowl.
  3. Cut the butter into the flour mixture until the butter is fully incorporated and the mixture is crumbly. Set aside.
  4. To make the cake batter, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, spices and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  5. Add the melted butter, oil and brown sugar to a large bowl and whisk together until well combined.
  6. Add the milk, vanilla extract and pumpkin puree and whisk together until well combined.
  7. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and fold together until well combined. Do not over mix.
  8. Spread the cake batter evenly into the prepared cake pan. Spread the streusel mixture evenly over the top of the cake batter.
  9. Bake the cake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few crumbs.
  10. Remove the cake from the oven and allow to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then remove to cooling rack to finish cooling.
  11. To make the glaze, combine the powdered sugar, vanilla extract and cream in a small bowl and whisk until smooth. You can always add a little more milk or sugar, if needed.
  12. Drizzle the glaze over the coffee cake and sprinkle with chopped pecans, if desired.
