Ingredients
Pumpkin Cake:
- 2 cups flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 oz. pumpkin puree Not pumpkin pie filling!, canned
- 1½ cups white sugar
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 4 egg large
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Brown Butter Maple Frosting:
- 12 tbsp butter unsalted
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- ¼ cup pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 9 x 13 baking pan with cooking spray.
- Make the pumpkin cake by combining the flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, baking soda, pumpkin spice, and salt together in a bowl until well combined.
- In another large bowl, beat the pumpkin puree, white sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract together with a mixer until creamy and smooth, about 45-60 seconds.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the pumpkin mixture until the batter comes together and there are only a few lumps. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or when a wooden tester inserted in the center comes out with moist, not wet, crumbs. Remove from the heat and cool on a wire rack completely.
- Make the brown butter maple frosting by heating the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring often, until melted. It will start to bubble, foam, and separate then will turn golden brown with a nutty aroma. Remove from the heat immediately and pour into a dish to cool completely. Side Note: Watch the butter carefully while cooking because it can burn quickly & easily.
- Once the butter has cooled completely, mix the powdered sugar together with the brown butter (and the little brown specks!), heavy cream, and pure maple syrup in a bowl. Beat with a hand mixer until creamy and smooth.
- Spread the frosting over the cooled cake and serve.
- Refrigerate the remaining cake in a sealed container. Enjoy.
