Ingredients
Cake:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon cloves
- 1 (15 oz) can pure pumpkin puree (or homemade)
- 1 1/4 cups sugar
- 1/2 cup applesauce
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 4 eggs
Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting:
- 8 oz cream cheese at room temperature
- 1/2 cup butter at room temperature
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Spray a 9x13-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves.
- In another bowl, or the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the pumpkin, sugar, applesauce, and oil. Mix to combine. Add the eggs and mix until combined. Add the dry ingredients and mix just until combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven until a tester inserted in the middle comes out clean, 25-30 minutes.
- Cool the cake completely.
- To make the frosting: Combine the cream cheese and the butter and beat until smooth and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Slowly start adding the powdered sugar, mixing until it is all incorporated. Mix in the cream, cinnamon and vanilla. Add more cream if needed to get a spreadable frosting.
- Frost the cooled cake with the cinnamon cream cheese frosting and serve.
- Cover and refrigerate any leftovers.
