I know I probably say this at least once a week. But this is the best thing I’ve made.
This week. HA!
No. Seriously. This pumpkin cake is amazing. And from the time you put it together to the time you are eating it with a fork is less than an hour.
And did I mention it makes TWO?
You can freeze one of them for later if you’d like.
Or give it to a friend, neighbor, family member, FAVORITE BLOGGER???
You get the idea.
When I freeze this, I don’t put the drizzle on it. I just slide the cooled cake into a Ziploc Freezer Bag (gallon sized). Then, when ready to serve, thaw on the counter top (I usually pull it out the night before). Warm it up in a 225 degree oven for 10 minutes (or microwave on a microwave safe plate for 1 1/2 minutes). Prepare the icing, drizzle it and eat.
This is the perfect breakfast on Thanksgiving morning. Or the day after. Or to prepare for those holiday guests. ENJOY!

This looks fabulous!
so of all the coffee cakes you’ve made, do you like this one the best? sounds like it
but just double checking b/c the cinnabon coffee cake looks stellar too! i guess it’s hard to compare pumpkin vs. non-pumpkin.
I think I do actually like it better than the Cinnabon version. This one is just simply amazing, you have to try it!!
LOVE pumpkin coffee cake. That drizzle looks amazing! And I love that it makes 2!
Looks like a really great coffee cake! Real autumn cake!
What a beautiful cake and it looks delicious! You’re right, it would be perfect for a Thanksgiving breakfast!! All of your recipes look wonderful.

That cake would be perfect for anytime! Breakfast, a snack, or dessert. It is beautiful and it looks delicious!
This cake looks SCRUUUUMPTIOUS! (I sang that in a sing-songy voice, so please read it like so). Also, PUMPKIN COFFEE CAKE!? I think my classic, fave coffee cake may have a new fave contender.
Yum, this is going on my pumpkin bucket list!
A pumpkin bucket list? I love it!
Your cake looks amazing!!!
Funny how that happens… the more we make things the more something is a new favorite
You sound like me! Everything I make becomes my new “favorite”. I can see why this yummy cake is your favorite. Pumpkin, streusel, and drizzle…yum!!! But you said it makes two…where was my cake when you stopped the other day???
Gorgeous! And I love that it can be made in 8-in cake pans!
Thanks Tara!!

I made this recipe over the weekend without the toppings. the cake alone was *very* delicious and made the perfect snack/breakfast/anytime food. I will absolutely be making this again before the holiday season is out.
