Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch pan.
- Prepare the streusel by mixing flour, sugars, salt, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice in a bowl. Stir in melted butter until crumbly.
- In another bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, spices, and cold butter until crumbly. Mix in half the pumpkin puree.
- Whisk remaining pumpkin puree with eggs, oil, and vanilla; add gradually to dry ingredients until just combined.
- Layer half the batter in the pan, sprinkle with half the streusel, then top with remaining batter and streusel.
- Bake for 45–50 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
