Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with baking spray and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together pumpkin puree, eggs, evaporated milk, sugar, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon until smooth and fully incorporated.
  • Pour the pumpkin mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread into an even layer.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the spice cake mix and chopped pecans. Sprinkle evenly over the pumpkin filling.
  • In another medium bowl, combine melted butter and whole milk.
  • Slowly pour the butter and milk mixture evenly over the top of the dry cake mix layer, ensuring most of the dry mix is submerged under the liquid. Gently push down dry areas with a spoon if needed.
  • Bake for 60 minutes or until the top is golden and the center is set.

Notes

This pumpkin dump cake is perfect for fall gatherings and holidays. You can substitute pecans with walnuts or omit nuts for a nut-free version. Serve warm with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for best results.
