Ingredients

For the Pumpkin Base

  • 15 oz Can of Pumpkin Puree NOT the pumpkin pie mix!
  • 12 oz Can of Evaporated Milk
  • 3 Large Eggs
  • 3/4 Cup Granulated White Sugar
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract

For the Crumble

  • 13.2 oz Betty Crocker Spice Cake Mix or any brand that you like
  • 6 tbsp Melted, salted butter
  • Optional toppings such as whip cream, caramel syrup, crushed pecans, vanilla ice cream

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly butter a 9×13 baking dish.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin purée, evaporated milk, eggs, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla until smooth.
  • Pour the pumpkin mixture into the greased dish.
  • In another bowl, stir the spice cake mix with the melted butter until crumbly.
  • Scatter the crumble evenly over the pumpkin base.
  • Bake for about 55 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden.
  • Let cool for 15 minutes before serving warm with whipped cream, caramel, and pecans.

Notes

  • Some crumble will sink — that’s intentional and creates the perfect moist, swirled texture.
  • You can replace whipped cream with vanilla ice cream.
  • Add a sprinkle of extra cinnamon on top for serving, if desired.
Storage
Store leftovers covered and refrigerated for up to 4 days. 
If you prefer it warm, simply heat it in the microwave for 15-25 seconds!
Freezing is not recommended. The evaporated milk and eggs will get watery and grainy after freezing
