Pumpkin Apple Crumb Cake

It’s October and pumpkin and apple season is in full swing, so why not combine them into this perfect pumpkin apple cake.

This recipe if a variation on a cake that we make called Fruit Filled Cake which can be adapted all year round.  It is moist and topped with a wonderful crumble. I’ll post the original recipe in the Spring.  You can make the original version with peach, cherry or blueberry filling, but for the fall, you can’t go wrong with pumpkin, spices and apples.

NOTE:  This recipe is for a 9×13 pan so it is 1 1/2 times the original recipe.  For the original you can still use a 9×13 pan, but the cake won’t be as high.  A 10″ round cake pan will also work.

The original recipe is:

• 1 cup melted butter
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup light brown sugar
• 4 eggs
• 3 ounces pumpkin puree
• 2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
• 2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
• 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 21 ounces apple pie filling
• cinnamon to sprinkle

  Crumble Topping:

• 4 tablespoons butter
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup light brown sugar
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

Follow the same directions below.

*****

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.  Butter or spray a 9×13 pan. Set aside.

Beat the melted butter, sugar and light brown sugar together.  Add eggs and pumpkin puree.  Mix to combine thoroughly.

In a separate medium bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, salt, ground cinnamon, ginger, allspice and nutmeg.  Add to the wet mixture, in thirds, mixing after each addition.  Do not overmix.

Pour 3/4 batter into a 9 x 13 inch greased pan.

Spread a can of pie filling on top.  Sprinkle cinnamon over the filling.

Spread the rest of the batter on top of the filling.

Make the crumble topping and sprinkle over the top of the batter.

Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 45 to 50 minutes.
