Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground ginger
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 0.5 cup Vegetable oil (or melted coconut oil)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
• 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In another medium-sized bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, applesauce, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, almond milk, and apple cider vinegar. Whisk until the wet ingredients are smooth and evenly mixed.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix as this can lead to a denser cake.

Step 5

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly using a spatula.

Step 6

Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Optional: Dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar or frost with your favorite dairy-free icing before serving.

Step 9

Slice and serve the cake. Enjoy!
