Pumpkin Cinnamon Roll Cake
Cake for breakfast is our favorite! We mixed pumpkin into the batter, swirled in some brown sugar and cinnamon, and created a delicious cross between a cake and a cinnamon roll.

Cup of Yum
For the topping:
- Whisk together the ingredients for the topping and sprinkle over the top of the cake batter. Use a butter knife to swirl the cinnamon sugar mixture through the cake batter.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a tester comes out clean. Let cool 20 minutes.
To glaze:
- Whisk together the powdered sugar and milk to make the glaze. Add additional milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, to reach the consistency you prefer. Pour the glaze over the warm cake.
- Let glaze set before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Be sure to use 100% pure pumpkin and not pumpkin pie filling in this recipe.
- The cake should be just slightly warm when glazing. Let the glaze firm up before slicing and serving.
