Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare Coffee Infusion: Bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Dissolve instant coffee in the boiling water in a measuring cup or mug. Set aside to cool completely. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch rectangular baking pan with oil. (2 minutes)

03

Step

Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger until well combined. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Incorporate Wet Ingredients: Add the cooled coffee mixture, vegetable oil, and 3/4 cup of water to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix. Fold in the pumpkin puree and vanilla extract until evenly distributed. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Bake: Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs clinging to it. This should take approximately 30 minutes, but baking times may vary.

06

Step

Cool: Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges of the pan to loosen the cake. Carefully invert the cake onto a serving plate or cooling rack. Allow it to cool for at least 15 minutes before cutting and serving.

For a richer flavor, consider using brown sugar instead of white sugar.
Add a handful of chopped walnuts or pecans for added texture (if nut allergies are not a concern).
If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, you can make your own by combining cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.
To elevate the presentation, dust the cake with powdered sugar or top with a vegan cream cheese frosting.
