Pumpkin Coffee Cake Recipe
I am a total pumpkin addict, like 100% addict. I stock up on the Pumpkin Spice K-cups before they run out so I can have them all year long. I make all the things pumpkin before it is the “cool thing to do” and drive my friends crazy. But I just can not help it. Pumpkin and Pumpkin Spice is my all time favorite flavor!
This Pumpkin Coffee Cake Recipe is my favorite fall recipe to make, so please accept my advanced apology for the possible over board of pictures in this post. I couldn’t narrow it down, so I am including like all of them.
In the mornings I sit down and enjoy a morning cup of coffee, depending on my mood it will be a pumpkin spice latte, a simple pumpkin spice coffee, Salted Caramel Pumpkin Spice Latte or just a normal cup of coffee with a splash of homemade pumpkin spice creamer.
As much as I love my coffee in the mornings I seem to want to step things up some more and add more pumpkin. That is where this amazing homemade pumpkin spice coffee cake comes into play. Of course I love making my Pumpkin Chocolate Chip muffins, Pumpkin Muffins, pumpkin bread, pumpkin pie french toast and Pumpkin Chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast, but this pumpkin breakfast cake is my favorite to enjoy with my morning coffee.

Tips for Making this recipe
Use a Bundt Pan. You could use a 9-by-13-inch cake pan if you wanted to, but I like to make simple things fancy and I love using my bundt pan.
Use Pumpkin Puree not pumpkin pie filling. You can use homemade pumpkin puree or canned pumpkin puree when you are making this recipe, just make sure it is not canned pumpkin pie filling.
Allow to cool. As tempting as it is to slice right into the pumpkin coffee cake as soon as you pull it out of the oven, give it a few minutes to cool.
Use Homemade pumpkin pie spice. Homemade pumpkin Pie spice is so much better then the store bought stuff, and it doesn’t have any of the fillers that are put into the store bought.
Do not over mix. Mix the wet ingredients and the dry ingredients in separate bowl and then combine and stir just until they are mixed.
