Ingredients
  

  • 1 can (15 oz) solid pack pumpkin puree (not pie filling)
  • 1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 box (15.25 oz) plain yellow cake mix
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup chopped pecans (optional)

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Light-duty spatula

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, evaporated milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice until smooth.
  3. Pour the pumpkin mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  4. Sprinkle the dry cake mix evenly over the pumpkin mixture without stirring.
  5. Drizzle the melted butter over the cake mix, covering as much of the dry powder as possible.
  6. If using, sprinkle the chopped pecans evenly on top.

  8. Let cool for at least 20 minutes before serving. Serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled, with whipped cream on top.

Notes

For a dairy-free version, substitute coconut milk for evaporated milk and use a plant-based butter. If you don’t have pumpkin pie spice, make your own blend using cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and allspice. To store leftovers, cover tightly with plastic wrap or store in an airtight container. It can be refrigerated for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 3 months. Reheat in the oven for the best texture. Adjust the sugar in the pumpkin layer for a less sweet version if desired. Presentation can be enhanced by dusting with powdered sugar or extra pumpkin pie spice before serving.
