Pumpkin Coffee Cake Recipe

This pumpkin coffee cake is moist cake with pumpkin and sweet sugary crumbles is the perfect fall cake! 

Fall is in the air and pumpkins are everywhere! The rhyming was not intentional 🙂 they really seem to be everywhere! My hubby loves all things pumpkin and the requests for pumpkin flavored things are starting to roll my way!

While we were vacation we stayed a friend’s house and one morning for breakfast she served this amazing coffee cake. I watched her make it and I was amazed how easy it was to create. I loved how moist the cake turned out and how sweet the crumb top was!

I decided to come home and give the coffeecake a try! Because my family is in pumpkin mode I jazzed the cake up a bit by adding in a can of pumpkin! Oh my, it’s all things fall in one bite!

You’ll never believe what makes the crumble top so good! Read on to see what goes into this easy pumpkin coffeecake!
