Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
  • 1 cup crumb topping (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan.
  2. Mix together the pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until smooth in a large bowl.
  3. Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in another bowl. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  4. Pour the batter into your prepared pan, spreading it evenly. If you’re using chopped nuts, sprinkle them on top.
  5. Mix flour, sugar, and butter together until crumbly for the crumb topping, then sprinkle over the batter.
  6. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until you can insert a toothpick in the center and it comes out clean.
  7. Let it cool before slicing and serving.

Notes

You can swap the vegetable oil for melted butter for a richer flavor. For a gluten-free option, use a gluten-free flour blend.
