This delicious pumpkin pecan coffee cake is one you will make over and over again. Super easy, and the taste is wonderful.

Why You’ll Love This Delicious Pumpkin Coffee Cake

This cake is easy to make and it’s made with a cake mix. Yes… a cake mix… don’t flip out! We spruce it up and you would absolutely think it’s made from scratch. The streusel topping is wonderful and then you add the icing. This is the perfect holiday cake. This cake can be made way in advance so it’s great to make for Thanksgiving or Christmas. Be sure and check the comments, this recipe has wonderful reviews. 

Swaps You Can Make

I think you could easily change out the cake mix and still have a delicious cake. If you use a spice cake mix you may want to cut the pumpkin pie spice in half. This is versatile but as you can see from the comments, it’s delicious made the way it’s written. I do think a gluten-free cake mix would work just fine. 

Tip

The iced topping is optional and can be omitted. We personally love the icing because it kind of sinks into the cake but it’s up to you if you add it. You could easily just add it to half the cake so you have options.

Prep Time 15 minutes mins

Cook Time 30 minutes mins

Total Time 45 minutes mins

Course Breakfast, Dessert

Cuisine American, southern

• 1/3 cup of butter melted
• 1 15 ounce can of pure pumpkin (not pumpkin mix)
• 2 eggs
• 1 15.25 ounce butter yellow cake mix (I use Betty Crocker)
• 2 teaspoons of pumpkin pie spice
• 1 teaspoon of baking soda
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla

Topping Ingredients

• 2/3 cup of brown sugar
• 1/4 th cup of white sugar
• 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
• 1/2 cup of butter sliced in small pieces
• 1/2 cup of all purpose flour
• 1 cup of pecans

Icing Topping (optional)

• 1 cup of powdered sugar
• 1/4 cup of milk or cream

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix melted butter, eggs, vanilla, pumpkin spice, pure pumpkin and combine with am mixer. Next add cake mix (just the dry mix) and baking soda and mix all together. Spray a 9X13 dish with cooking spray and pour mixture into pan.

• Next combine all topping ingredients. It will be more like a crumble with the sliced butter. Spread over top of cake. Pat down a little so it will stick. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Mine was done right at 30 minutes, but oven vary so be sure and check it to see if it tests done. It may need more time.  Remove from oven and let cool.

• If adding icing topping, combine powdered sugar and milk and drizzle over cake.
