Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground ginger
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups Brown sugar, packed
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, softened
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 cup Pumpkin puree
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cups Sour cream
• 0.5 cups Chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
• 0.5 cups All-purpose flour (for streusel)
• 0.5 cups Brown sugar, packed (for streusel)
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (for streusel)
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted (for streusel)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan or a 10-inch Bundt pan.

Step 2

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

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and butter together using a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then mix in the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract until well incorporated.

Step 5

On low speed, add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture in three batches, alternating with the sour cream. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

For the streusel topping, in a small bowl, mix together the streusel flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter using a fork until a crumbly texture forms.

Step 7

Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly. Sprinkle half of the streusel topping over the batter.

Step 8

Pour the remaining cake batter on top and spread it evenly. Sprinkle the remaining streusel topping over the batter. If using nuts, sprinkle them over the top layer as well.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 10

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15-20 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely, or serve warm. Enjoy!
