Delightful Pumpkin Coffee Cake Recipe 🎃☕🍰

As the autumn season arrives, there’s nothing quite like the comforting flavors of pumpkin and warm spices to fill your home with cozy aromas. This Pumpkin Coffee Cake is the perfect treat to enjoy with your morning coffee or as a delightful dessert to share with loved ones. With its tender crumb and rich streusel topping, this coffee cake is sure to become a seasonal favorite.

Ingredients

For the Streusel Crumb Topping:

• ¼ cup all-purpose flour
• ¼ cup light brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon cinnamon
• 4 tablespoons cold butter (¼ cup)

For the Coffee Cake:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup canned pumpkin
• ½ cup canola oil or vegetable oil
• ½ cup brown sugar
• ¼ cup milk
• ¼ cup maple syrup

Instructions

1️⃣ Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). 🔥 This ensures that your coffee cake bakes evenly from the start.

2️⃣ Prepare the Baking Dish: Spray a 9×9 square baking dish with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper. 🧴📃 This step prevents the cake from sticking and makes for easy removal.

3️⃣ Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice. 🥄 Mix until the ingredients are well incorporated.

4️⃣ Blend the Wet Ingredients: In a separate medium bowl, mix together the canned pumpkin, brown sugar, oil, maple syrup, and milk. 🎃🥛 Stir until everything is well blended and smooth.

5️⃣ Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir just until combined, being careful not to overmix. 🍂 Overmixing can lead to a dense coffee cake, and we want a light, fluffy texture.

6️⃣ Prepare the Batter: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula. 🥄📋

7️⃣ Make the Streusel Topping: In a small bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon for the crumb topping. Add the cold butter and use a fork to cut the butter into the mixture until it forms a crumbly texture. 🧈🍚 Ensure that the flour is well incorporated with the butter.

8️⃣ Add the Streusel Topping: Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the batter. 🍰 This crumbly layer adds a delicious crunch and extra sweetness to the cake.

9️⃣ Bake: Place the coffee cake in the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out mostly clean. If the toothpick is still wet, bake for an additional 5 minutes. ⏳🔍

Serve and Enjoy!

Let the Pumpkin Coffee Cake cool slightly before slicing. Serve it warm or at room temperature with a hot cup of coffee or tea. The cake’s moist crumb, paired with the sweet and spicy streusel topping, is a true taste of autumn.
