Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 box box of carrot cake mix or spice cake mix
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup water

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, pumpkin puree, and water. Stir well until everything is well combined and there are no lumps.
  3. Grease your cake pan with butter or cooking spray.
  4. Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly.
Baking
  1. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes.
  2. Check if the cake is done by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
Cooling
  1. Once baked, let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Serve plain or with toppings like cream cheese frosting, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of cinnamon. Store at room temperature for a couple of days, or in the fridge for longer freshness.
