Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 (15 ounce) pumpkin puree about 3 ½ cups total, canned
  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 4 large egg
  • 2 cups whole milk or half-and-half or heavy cream
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon ground allspice
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon cloves ground
  • 1 (15.25 ounce) yellow cake mix
  • ½ cup pecans chopped
  • ¾ cup butter sliced into very thin squares
  • Whipped Cream optional for serving; or vanilla ice cream; caramel sauce; dash of cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside. In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin, brown sugar, eggs, milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, salt, and cloves until completely combined. Pour into the prepared pan.
  2. Sprinkle dry cake mix and pecans over top. Add thinly-sliced butter to cover the top.
  3. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the pumpkin filling is set and the topping is golden brown.

Notes

  • Substitutions for yellow cake mix: if you don't have a box of yellow cake mix, try using white cake mix or spice cake mix.
  • Use whole milk, half-and-half or heavy cream. I do not recommend substituting with a fat-free or low-fat milk, because the fat in the dairy helps to make the rich pumpkin custard.
  • Pecans are optional. You can omit the nuts altogether, decrease to just ¼ cup (I often do this to appease my kids!), or use different nuts such as walnuts or almonds.
  • Cool to slice. You can serve the dump cake warm, straight from the oven; however, I find that it's easiest to slice the cake into neat squares if you allow the cake to cool for at least 1 hour.
  • Add a creamy topping. Don't forget the whipped cream or vanilla ice cream on top! It's the perfect finishing touch. Try a drizzle of caramel sauce, too.
