  • Make the crumb topping first. In a small bowl, toss brown sugar, flour, pecans, spice, and salt together. Add the melted butter and combine using a pastry blender or a fork. Mix to create clumps and crumbs. Set aside.

  • To make the cake, combine flour, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin pie spice in the bowl of your stand mixer. With the paddle attachment on and speed on low, slowly add pieces of the butter until you've added the entire cube. Increase speed taking care to not make a huge mess, and mix until your dry mixture is well coated in the butter.

  • With the mixer running on low, pour half of the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Increase speed to medium and mix well until light and fluffy, about a minute. Add remaining liquid mixture and mix just until combined. Batter will be very thick. Add to prepared baking dish. Spread to make an even surface.

  • Bake the cake for 30-40 minutes. Check the cake's doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes on clean with a moist crumb or two, the cake is done. If the toothpick has wet batter on it, bake the cake for 5 more minutes.
  • Store cake in air tight container. I kept it in a gallon sized freezer bag with all the air squeezed out and it was even better the next day!
