Ingredients

• 1 Cup All-Purpose Flour
• 1/2 Cup Butter Cubed
• 1 cup Brown Sugar
• 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
• 2 Teaspoons Cinnamon
• 2 Cups All-Purpose Flour
• 1 Teaspoon Baking Soda
• 1/2 Teaspoon Baking Powder
• 1/2 Teaspoon Salt
• 2 Teaspoons Cinnamon
• 1 Teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice
• 1 Cup Pumpkin Puree
• 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
• 1/2 Cup Canola Oil
• 1/4 Cup Maple Sugar
• 1/4 Cup Milk
• 1/2 Cup Powdered Sugar
• 1 Tablespoon Cream

• Step 1

  The first thing you will want to do is get out all of your ingredients and pre-heat your oven to 350°. Then, we will make the crumb topping. Combine 1 Cup All-Purpose Flour, 1/2 Cup, Butter (Cubed), 1 cup Brown Sugar, 1/4 Teaspoon Salt, and 2 Teaspoons Cinnamon. You can either use your hands or any utensil (such as a fork) to fully combine the ingredients until the butter is in a pea-size shape. I usually put the crumb topping back into the fridge while I continue to prep, so the butter can stay nice and cold. I would say this is probably the hardest step, because you want it to be the right consistency.

  

• Step 2

  In a separate bowl, combine all of your dry ingredients which consists of 2 Cups All-Purpose Flour, 1 Teaspoon Baking Soda, 1/2 Teaspoon Baking Powder, 1/2 Teaspoon Salt, 2 Teaspoons Cinnamon, and 1 Teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice. Mix these together with a whisk and set to the side with the crumb topping.

  

• Step 3

  Once you have your wet and dry ingredients fully prepared, now get together the wet ingredients. Mix together 1 Cup Pumpkin Puree, 1/2 Cup Brown Sugar, 1/2 Cup Canola Oil, 1/4 Cup Maple Sugar, and 1/4 Cup Milk.

  

• Step 4

  Pour you wet ingredients into the flour mixture and stir just until it fully combined. The batter will be very thick, but be careful not to over-mix it. You don't want a tough cake!

  

• Step 5

  I used two "1/3" size pans which are perfect for gift-giving! I sprayed them with non-stick spray and split the batter between the two. Make sure you spread it out into an even layer.

  

• Step 6

  Take your crumb topping and pour 1/2 of it over each of the pans on top of the batter. Yes, it seems like a lot. Also yes, it is the best part of the cake.

  

• Step 7

  Throw these cakes into the oven for approximately 30-35 minutes. Mine took about 32 minutes, but you want to make sure a clean toothpick comes out. Leave them to cool completely.

  

• Step 8

  To make the glaze, mix together the 1/2 Cup Powdered Sugar and 1 Tablespoon of Cream. In this case, I used Pumpkin Spice Creamer that I had! When the cakes are cool, drizzle this glaze over them.
