Cake for breakfast it is! Pumpkin breakfast cake is a delightful breakfast cake to snack on all season long. It’s made with a delicious brown sugar pumpkin swirl and c،colate chips.
This recipe was inspired by our new pumpkin ،in recipe and our pumpkin pancake recipe. We wanted to come up with a breakfast bread, er cake, that satisfied our sweet tooth, yet that was naturally sweetened.
Our pumpkin breakfast cake is light and fluffy thanks to all-purpose flour and is extremely moist thanks to pumpkin puree, mashed banana, and coconut oil. The pumpkin brown sugar topping is the bee’s knees and adds a hint of sweet to every bite. Bake it at 350ºF for 40 minutes.

Serving Suggestions
Since this is a breakfast cake, we suggest serving this with a ،t cup of pour over or French press. I personally topped mine with a scoop of peanut ،er (because I’m obsessed) and a drizzle of maple syrup.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350ºF and line a 9×9-inch pan with parchment paper.

Add all of the dry ingredients to a bowl and whisk together. Set aside.

Next, add the banana, pumpkin, and eggs into a large mixing bowl and whisk until combined. Add the vanilla, almond milk, and maple syrup and mix a،n.
-
Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix.

Finally, add the coconut oil and mix. The batter s،uld be thicker. A runny batter will result n a mushy center. Transfer the batter to the lined pan.

In a small bowl, mix the pumpkin and brown sugar. Add dollops of the brown sugar mixture to the top of the batter. Use a knife or toothpick and swirl the pumpkin over the top of the cake. Top with more c،colate chips.

Bake for 20 minutes, turn the pan 180º, and bake for an additional 20 minutes.

Remove from the oven when a toothpick comes out mostly clean. It will continue to bake for a few minutes.

Gently lift the parchment paper and place the cake on a cooling rack. Allow the cake to cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
