Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups pumpkin puree
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup toasted pecans, chopped
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup melted butter
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking pan thoroughly
- Mix wet ingredients: Whisk pumpkin puree, eggs, and granulated sugar until completely smooth
- Combine dry ingredients: Mix flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in separate bowl
- Make batter: Gradually fold dry ingredients into wet mixture until just combined
- Prepare streusel: Combine toasted pecans, brown sugar, and melted butter until crumbly
- Layer: Pour half batter in pan, add half streusel, remaining batter, then final streusel
- Bake: Bake 30-35 minutes until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean
Notes
- Toast pecans in a dry skillet for 3-4 minutes to intensify their nutty flavor and prevent sogginess
- Don’t overmix the batter once flour is added – this keeps the texture tender and prevents toughness
- Let eggs come to room temperature for 30 minutes before using for better incorporation
- Cover with foil if the top browns too quickly during the last 10 minutes of baking
