A moist and tender pumpkin-based layer cake infused with warm autumn spices and topped with a bold espresso-flavored buttercream frosting.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 350g All-purpose flour
  • 300g Granulated sugar
  • 425g Pure pumpkin puree
  • 180ml Vegetable oil
  • 3 Large eggs
  • 2 tbsp Pumpkin pie spice
  • 2 tsp Baking powder
  • 225g Unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 tbsp Instant espresso powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 175°C and grease two 8-inch cake pans.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, and eggs until smooth.
  3. Sift in the flour, sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and baking powder, then stir until just combined.
  4. Divide the batter between the pans and bake for 30 to 35 minutes.
  5. For the frosting, beat softened butter with espresso powder and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
  6. Once cakes are completely cool, frost the layers and assemble the cake.
  7. Finish with swirls of whipped cream and a dusting of cinnamon if desired.

Notes

  • Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for the smoothest batter.
  • Do not over-mix once the dry ingredients are added.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting to prevent melting.
