When the colder weather starts to roll in, there’s no better time to eat lots of pumpkin recipes!
Fall is officially here, and as much as I love the changing of the seasons, I hate that winter is coming! The only thing that gets me through that sad feeling is knowing that with fall comes lots of pumpkin and fall type flavors! Just like this incredibly easy pumpkin crumb cake!
I have grown to really love a good piece of pumpkin pie. When I was younger, not so much, but with age, I guess taste buds change, and I now love pumpkin. This recipe is so much better than a piece of pumpkin pie, but it’s very similar, in my opinion. The filling is still a soft consistency like a pumpkin pie, and the cake crumble top gives it so much flavor!
Serving this warm will definitely have a softer texture and would go great with some vanilla ice cream 😉 If you wait until they cool, or even put them in the fridge, you will get a firmer piece when you cut them up. I prefer it served warm, but it’s just my preference, and either way is fine!
Thanksgiving is right around the corner, and this would be a great addition to the table. I’m sure your friends and family will fall in love with this cake as much as I have. Enjoy!
