Equipment

  • 8x8-inch baking pan
  • large mixing bowl
  • Whisk or spoon
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • ½ cup pumpkin puree
  • 5 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup water

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Spray an 8x8-inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray; set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  • Use a spoon to form wells in different areas around the surface of the dry ingredient mixture; two large wells and two small. This is meant to keep the wet ingredients separate until the water is added.
  • Scoop the pumpkin into one of the large wells. Pour the vegetable oil into the other large well, then the vinegar and vanilla separately into the two small wells.
  • Add the water to the bowl and mix until well combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. Bake the cake at 350F for 35-45 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Cool the cake completely to room temperature then top with the frosting of your choice.
