A super moist cake, filled with the flavor of pumpkin and the warmth of autumn spices, topped with a generous amount of cinnamon crumb. Thank goodness fall has arrived!
To make the crumb layer, combine the sugar, salt and cinnamon in a bowl. Stir in the melted butter and then the flour. Mix well and set aside.
02To make the cake, preheat the oven to 350ºF. Cream the butter and sugar together using either a stand mixer or a hand mixer. Add the eggs, vanilla, pumpkin and sour cream and continue mixing until combined. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice and salt. Stir into the batter and mix until combined.
03To assemble the cake, pour the cake layer batter into a greased 9″ round springform pan (you can also bake this in a 9″ square baking dish). Crumble the crumb topping evenly over the batter and bake in the preheated oven for approximately 45-50 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean. Allow to cool completely before removing from the springform pan.
04For the topping, mix the confectioners sugar and cinnamon together. Dust the top with the sugar/cinnamon mixture before serving.
