  • *Spoon & Sweep method: Use a spoon to fill measuring cup with flour until required amount is obtained. Scooping measuring cup directly into flour bag will firmly pack flour resulting in too much flour required for recipe.

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Prepare two 9-inch round cake pans with nonstick cooking spray or butter completely with a light dusting of flour. Set aside. 
  2. To make cake, whisk together pumpkin, oil, brown sugar, and sugar. Mix in eggs one at a time.
  3. Mix in buttermilk, vanilla, salt, and pumpkin pie spice.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together baking powder, baking soda, and flour. Fold dry mixture into bowl of wet ingredients until batter forms.

  9. Line a 9-inch cake pan with foil and lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray. Pour batter into prepared pan.
  10. Bake for 40 minutes. Let cool to room temperature before chilling.
