Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup brown sugar (for topping)
1 1/2 cups hot water
1/2 cup pecan halves
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. In a bowl, mix flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
3. In another bowl, combine pumpkin puree, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
4. Mix the wet ingredients into the dry until just combined.
5. Spread the batter into the prepared baking dish evenly.
6. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over the batter.
7. Carefully pour hot water over the back of a spoon over the top. Do not stir.
8. Add pecans on top of the mixture.
9. Bake for 40–45 minutes until the top is set and golden brown.
10. Let cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
Notes
Use canned pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling) for consistent results.
Always pour the hot water slowly over a spoon to keep the layers intact.
Letting it rest after baking helps the sauce thicken properly.
