Ingredients
  

Cake batter

  • 2 cups all purpose flour (gluten free)
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 ½ tbsp pumpkin spice
  • 1 cups pumpkin puree
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup white sugar
  • ½ cup canola oil
  • ¼ cup milk

Crumble topping

  • ½ cup flour (gluten free)
  • ¾ cup oats
  • 100 grams butter
  • Cinnamon
  • 75 grams walnuts (chopped)

Glaze

  • ½ cup icing sugar
  • 1 tbsp milk

Instructions
 

Cake batter

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C.
  • In a large bowl mix the dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin spice). Stir until they are all combined.
  • In a separate medium size bowl, mix together the wet ingredients (pumpkin puree, brown sugar, white sugar, oil, and milk).
  • Pour the wet mixture into the large bowl of dry ingredients. Fold these together until they are combined - be careful not to over mix.
  • To a 9x9 inch baking pan, spray non-stick oil or grease with butter.
  • Pour the batter into the pan.

Crumble topping

  • In a large bowl mix together the flour, walnuts, cinnamon, oats, and the 1/2 cup of brown sugar.
  • Add the cubed butter to the flour mix. Use your hands to mush it all together. It should be a moist crumbly texture.
  • Sprinkle the crumble relatively evenly over the cake batter.
  • Bake the cake
  • To the preheated oven, insert the cake.
  • Bake for 30 minutes.
  • Use a toothpick or skewer to check if the cake has baked enough, it should come out clean with a few crumbs.

Serve the cake

  • Remove the cake from the oven, let it cool for at least 20 minutes.
  • Whilst the cake is cooling, make the glaze by whisking the milk and icing sugar together.
  • When the cake has cooled, drizzle the glaze over top, then serve!
