- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
- 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 cup pumpkin puree , not pumpkin pie filling
- 3 eggs
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
Pumpkin Olive Oil Cake:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-inch springform pan with vegetable shortening and then line the bottom with parchment paper. Set it on a rimmed baking sheet in case of dripping. Set aside.
- Sift together the flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, cream together the brown sugar and olive oil until the sugar dissolves, approximately 2-3 minutes.
- Blend in the pumpkin puree, eggs and vanilla until smooth.
- Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients until just mixed. Do not overmix.
- Pour the cake batter into the prepared springform pan.
- Bake the cake for 40 minutes, turning the sheet pan halfway through baking. Bake until the cake passes a toothpick test.
- Remove and allow to cool for 30 minutes before releasing the spring form pan. Allow to cool fully before icing.
Maple Glaze:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, maple syrup, powdered sugar, salt and vanilla until smooth.
- Place the cake onto a wire cooling rack with parchment or aluminum foil underneath for easy clean-up.
- Spoon or pour half of the glaze over the cake. Allow the glaze to set for 3-4 minutes, then pour the rest of the glaze over top and allow it to set before cutting and serving.
