Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon ground ginger
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups apples, peeled, cored, and finely chopped
- 0.5 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar, for topping
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Whisk to ensure an even mix of dry ingredients.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, pumpkin puree, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the chopped apples and nuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, sprinkle the top with powdered sugar for a finishing touch.
Slice into squares and serve. Enjoy your Apple Pumpkin Coffee Cake with a hot cup of coffee or tea!
