So I actually wasn’t going to post this. I’m so over pumpkin! LOL seriously. Pumpkin itself really is not a great flavor. It’s the cinnamon and pumpkin spice that everyone loves. But, I wanted to share this recipe with you all so there ya go! I had a little bit of canned pumpkin left and made this quick cake in a mug. I was expecting it to come out differently, it was good, but not great. And the white in the picture is powdered sugar. NOT NECESSARY as this is already very sweet.

What you will need:

Microwave safe coffee mug

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 tablespoons pumpkin puree
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch of salt
Pinch of ground cloves

For the streusel topping:

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 tablespoons flour
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

In the microwave, melt the butter in the mug. Add the sugar, pumpkin and vanilla and stir until combined. Stir in four, baking powder, salt and cloves until combined.

To make the streusel, put all ingredients in a small bowl and mix with your fingers until it resembles coarse sand. Pour over the cake batter in the mug. Microwave for about 1 minute to 1 minute 20 seconds. Allow to cool for 2 minutes before digging in! Enjoy!
