This coffee cake is one for the books...and the perfect fall dessert. The cake is tender and moist, with a pumpkin pie-streusel layer, then topped with more cake and finally, the rest of the streusel sprinkled over the top. It's just fabulous in looks and flavor!

How To Make pumpkin-streusel coffee cake

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 325'F. Spray a 9x13" pan.
  • Step 2
    Combine ingredients for Streusel Topping; set aside for later.
  • Step 3
    Cream butter, 3/4 cup sugar and vanilla; add 3 eggs beating well.
  • Step 4
    Combine flour, baking powder and soda. Add to butter mixture alternating with sour cream.
  • Step 5
    Combine pumpkin, 1 egg, 1/3 cup sugar, and pumpkin spice.
  • Step 6
    Spoon 1/2 of batter in a prepared 9 x 13 pan. (It's thick and looks like it's not enough, but it will rise up into a beautiful, moist cake.) Sprinkle 1/2 of streusel over batter. Spread pumpkin mix over streusel. Spread remaining batter over pumpkin. Sprinkle remaining streusel on top.
