Cream cheese topping: smoothen the cream cheese until soft with a spatula. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well. Transfer into a piping bag equipped with a round piping tip (Mine was 0.8 cm in diameter). Set aside for later use..
-
Cake: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, both types of sugar, baking soda, salt, and all of the ground spices until combined. (All of the ground spices can be substituted with 2 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice if available)..
-
In another medium bowl, whisk together the rest of the wet ingredients..
-
Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture. Stir and mix just until combined. Do not overmix because it will develop gluten and toughen the cake..
-
Transfer the batter into an 8" (20 cm) square baking pan lined with parchment paper. Spread it evenly using a spatula. Pipe a grid pattern across the top with the cream cheese topping..
-
Into a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C, bake for 30 – 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the pan and let cool completely, then serve..
Homemade pumpkin cake requires basic ingredients.
I actually use these same exact ingredients for my favorite pumpkin bars, too.
Flour: All-purpose flour serves as the base.
We use sturdy all-purpose flour instead of cake flour in this recipe because of the thick, wet batter.
Make no mistake, this cake is CAKE, not a heavy, dense quick bread simply baked in a cake pan.
