Pumpkin Pie Crumb Cake Recipe

My pumpkin pie crumb cake is function pumpkin pie custard, part cake, as well as likewise role biscuit cheers to the crunchy streusel topping.

Crumb cake, besides known as streusel cake or coffee cake, 

The clandestine to getting the texture of the cake layer is that y'all actually desire it to collapse a flake. In a normal sponge cake with pumpkin purée (which is quite dense and wet as ingredients go), I'd add together baking pulverisation too as self-raising flour to pass it more of a elevator. But because I wanted it to live a little pudding-y inward the center, I omitted the extra baking pulverisation. The self-raising flour is merely enough to pass on the edges a fluffy, cakey texture, but not enough and then that it rises completely giving ascension to a dense only soft custard-similar eye.
