Cook Time 45 minutes
Servings 3 6" Cake layers

Ingredients

  • cups All Purpose Flour
  • 2 cups Light Brown Sugar
  • 2 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • ½ teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Cloves
  • 2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Ginger
  • 1 teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Seasoning
  • 2 Eggs At room temperature
  • ¼ cup Whole Milk At room temperature
  • ½ cup Vegetable Oil
  • 2 cups Pumpkin Puree

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degree F. 
  • Grease three 6" cake pans with non stick spray. Place a round parchment paper on the bottom of the pan and spray with non stick spray once again. Set aside. 
  • In the bowl of your electric stand mixer with the paddle attachment, sift together flour, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, cloves, cinnamon, ginger, and pumpkin pie seasoning. Mix on low to combine. 
  • In a separate bowl, combine all wet ingredients: pumpkin puree, milk, oil, vanilla and eggs. Whisk to combine.

  • Batter will be thick.
  • Distribute batter evenly between three prepared cake pans. 
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for 35-45 minutes or until cooked throughout.
