Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (29-ounce) can pumpkin puree

  • 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk

  • 3 large eggs

  • ½ cup packed brown sugar

  • ½ cup white sugar

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger

  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 1 (15.25-ounce) package spice cake mix

  • ½ cup coarsely chopped pecans

  • ½ cup melted butter


Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

  • Mix pumpkin base: In a large bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, evaporated milk, eggs, brown sugar, white sugar, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt until smooth.

  • Assemble: Pour pumpkin mixture into the prepared dish. Evenly sprinkle the dry cake mix over the top.

  • Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until golden and set in the center.

  • Cool slightly before serving. Best enjoyed warm with whipped cream or ice cream!

Notes

  • Swap pecans with walnuts or skip the nuts entirely for a nut-free version.
