1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp nutmeg
½ tsp salt
½ cup vegetable oil
1 cup pumpkin puree
2 large eggs
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan, or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until evenly combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the oil, pumpkin puree, and eggs until smooth.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined—be careful not to overmix!
For an extra special touch, combine a couple of tablespoons of sugar with a sprinkle of cinnamon and set aside.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar evenly over the batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut into squares and serve with coffee or tea!
