2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon cloves

1/4 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup chopped pecans

Notes

Use canned pumpkin, not pumpkin pie filling.

Baking powder is essential—don’t skip it.

To double the recipe, use a 9×13 pan and double all ingredients, including hot water.

This recipe contains no eggs.

Use a reliable gluten-free flour blend to make it gluten-free.

Prepare batter ahead of time, but add topping and water just before baking.

Best served fresh—freezing not tested.
