Pumpkin Coffee Cake W/ Walnut Streusel – This warm and delicious pumpkin coffee cake is perfect for any fall gathering.

Growing up, I loved pumpkin coffee cake with a walnut streusel crust. It was the best way to celebrate autumn and get into the spirit of the season. I loved the smell of the warm cake baking in the oven and the taste was out of this world. My mom would often make our breakfast or dessert on the weekends, and pumpkin coffee cake was always a hit. There was something so satisfying about slathering the rich, moist cake with a smear of hazelnut butter, topping it with a layer of softly melted chocolate, and finally crusting it with toasty walnut streusel. Even though I was a grown woman now, I could always nostalgically smell that delicious pumpkin coffee cake baking in the oven and it would take me right back to my childhood. Thanks, mom, for always making the best pumpkin coffee cake!

Pumpkin Coffee Cake with Walnut Streusel

Pumpkin Coffee Cake is a delicious and spicy autumnal dessert. The pumpkin puree and spices give the cake a rich and warm flavor, while the flaky, buttery walnut streusel topping adds a delicious and popular contrast of texture and flavor. This coffee cake is also gluten free, making it a great option for those with dietary restrictions.

To make the walnut streusel, we will first need to beat together butter and flour until the mixture is smooth. Once the butter is fully melted, we will add in the nuts and raisins, and mix until well combined. We can then go ahead and spread the mixture out on a baking sheet, and place in the fridge to chill for about 30 minutes.

When the walnut streusel is chilled and ready to use, we will preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. We will then take the cake batter, and evenly distribute it over the top of the streusel. We then bake the cake for 30-35 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

While the cake is baking, we can prepare the coffee glaze. First, we will heat up the cream cheese until it is melted, and then add in both coffee and sugar. mix until well combined. Once the glaze is ready, we can go ahead and drizzle it over the top of the warm cake, and enjoy!
