The pumpkin spice cakes are baked in a pumpkin cakelet pan for a fun mini-sized fall dessert. The cakes are flavored with autumn spices and are great for Thanksgiving.
After using my Martha Stewart collection pumpkin cake pan to make mini mochi pumpkin cakes, I wanted to use it again because it’s such a cute pan. So, I made some mini pumpkin spice cakes.
These were small, cute, and tasty. I love the little pumpkin shapes. The pan has been working out great. The cakes slide right out.
These molds are perfect for presenting simple cakes. I baked a bunch of mini pumpkin cakes to give to relatives over the Thanksgiving weekend and everyone seemed to like them. If you don’t have this pan, you can also use a muffin pan.
Ingredients
- Pumpkin puree
- Eggs
- Vegetable oil
- Water
- White sugar
- All-purpose flour
- Baking soda
- Salt
- Ground cinnamon
- Ground nutmeg

How to Make the Cakes
Mix the pumpkin puree, eggs, oil, water, and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger.
With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, filling each mold 2/3 full.
Bake at 350°F for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Store the pumpkin spice cakes in an airtight container and they will keep for a few days at room temperature. You can also freeze them for up to three months.
