Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with 1 teaspoon of butter. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, eggs, water, 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice until well combined. (2 minutes)

03

Step

Gradually stir in the yellow cake mix and baking soda until just combined, being careful not to overmix. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan. (1 minute)

05

Step

In a separate small bowl, combine 1/2 cup brown sugar, flour, and 1/4 cup melted butter. Mix with a fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the cake batter. (1 minute)

07

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. (30 minutes)

08

Step

While the cake is baking, prepare the glaze. In a saucepan, combine 1/2 cup brown sugar, heavy cream, white sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. (2 minutes)

09

Step

Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugars are completely dissolved and the glaze is smooth. Remove from heat. (5 minutes)

10

Step

Once the cake is out of the oven, poke holes all over the top with a toothpick or skewer. (2 minutes)

11

Step

Pour the warm glaze evenly over the cake, allowing it to seep into the holes. (1 minute)

12

Step

Let the cake cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature. (10 minutes)

For an extra nutty flavor, add 1/2 cup of chopped pecans or walnuts to the crumble topping.
To ensure even baking, rotate the pan halfway through the baking time.
If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can make your own by combining cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.
Store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
