How to make a Pumpkin Coffee Cake

First, make the crumb topping.

In a medium-size bowl whisk together the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and pinch of salt. Break up the brown sugar if it clumps. Pour in the melted butter and mix with a fork until it is moistened and crumbly. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Spray a 9″ springform pan with baking spray.

In another mixing bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl cream the softened butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time until incorporated. Add the pumpkin puree, sour cream, and vanilla. Mix on low speed slowly adding the dry ingredients just until combined.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread out evenly. The batter will be thick. Sprinkle the crumb topping over evenly.

Bake about 40-45 minutes, until the center is set. Remove and cool on a wire rack.

Slice and enjoy this little piece of Fall heaven with your favorite hot beverage. For me, that’s coffee all the way!
