Today the weather is cold, gloomy, and snowflakes are flying. I guess that’s why I crave this Pumpkin Dump Cake. This cake is extremely easy to make, and it quickly becomes a gluten-free dessert simply by using a gluten-free cake mix. All the other ingredients are naturally gluten-free.

Calling All Pumpkin Lovers!
If you are a pumpkin lover then you’ll want to keep this recipe close at hand. It’s also a wonderful addition to your Thanksgiving or Fall dessert repertoire.
To make an easy and simple Pumpkin Dump Cake, first, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
Next, whisk together pure pumpkin, evaporated milk, eggs, sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Pour the batter into a lightly greased 9 x 13-inch pan.
Evenly sprinkle a yellow cake mix over the top of the pumpkin mixture. If you are making the gluten-free version simply use a gluten-free cake mix instead.
Next, evenly sprinkle the top of the cake with chopped pecans.
The next step is to drizzle melted butter evenly over the top of the cake.
Finally, bake the cake at 350 degrees F for approximately 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Oh my goodness! The most delicious aroma will fill your kitchen as this pumpkin dump cake bakes!
It’s hard not to grab a fork and dig in before the cake has time to cool a bit.
This cake is delicious plain, however, I like to garnish each serving with a dollop of whipped topping or scoop of vanilla ice cream.
One recipe serves approximately 12 to 15, depending on your serving size.
