This cake is beautifully moist and incredibly simple to make; it's also 100% vegan and nut free, so it's an all-around winner in my book. It can easily be cut into bars or squares, and you could even add icing on top for an extra something. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do!

Time 1h5m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup water
1 tablespoon instant coffee, or as needed
1 teaspoon oil for greasing
2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
2 ½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground ginger
¾ cup vegetable oil
¾ cup water
3 tablespoons pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Boil 1 cup water and mix with instant coffee in a measuring cup or mug. Set aside to cool.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a rectangular 9x13-inch baking pan.
  • Combine flour, sugar, mixed spice, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger in a bowl and mix well. Add cooled coffee, oil, and 3/4 cup water and mix until well combined. Fold in pumpkin puree and vanilla extract; mix well. Pour batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or almost clean, as this cake can be quite sticky, about 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use canned pumpkin purée instead of fresh pumpkin.
  • Be sure to drain the pumpkin purée well before using it in the cake batter.
  • Use a light hand when mixing the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help to prevent the cake from sinking in the middle.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can make your own by combining 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves.
  • If you don't have vegan cream cheese, you can make your own by blending 1 cup of cashews, 1/4 cup of lemon juice, 1/4 cup of water, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt until smooth.
  • For a fun and festive touch, decorate the cake with pumpkin-shaped sprinkles or candy corn.
