This pumpkin cake is easy to make, soft, super moist, and topped with an easy homemade cream cheese frosting. This cake is perfectly spiced and a wonderful dessert for fall! <\/em><\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

This is easily my favorite time of year because the weather starts to cool off and pumpkin desserts are everywhere right now. Last week I shared a couple of fall-inspired treats with you and today I have another one I absolutely adore – this homemade pumpkin cake!<\/p>\n

While I love making cakes and decorating them, there’s also something I love about the simplicity of this cake. All you have to do is whisk together your dry ingredients, then the wet ingredients, combine them, pour the batter into a pan, and bake it.<\/p>\n

Another great thing about making cakes in a 9×13 pan is that you don’t really have to worry about decorating them. All you have to do is mix up your favorite frosting and spread it on top. I used a cream cheese frosting on top of this cake, but I’ve included another option for you to try if you prefer!<\/p>\n

Recipe Ingredients<\/h2>\n

This pumpkin cake recipe uses simple pantry staples that you likely have on hand. For the dry ingredients you’ll be using all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, spices, and salt. The wet ingredients are just a simple mixture of pumpkin puree, oil, sugar, eggs, and pure vanilla extract.<\/p>\n
