John, I have declared my whole life that I am not a baker. Nothing I ever made ever came out right…. Until now!! It actually brought a tear to my eye how beautifully this cake turned out. You know why? Because you told us not to beat the two mixtures, dry and wet, together too much because why? Because it starts the gluten in the flour!! Mind blown 🤯!! A great teacher never holds the secret to himself. He shares his knowledge so others can succeed. You did that. Thank you, John. 😊
Just popped mine in the oven can’t wait to see how it turns out! Over the years, you’ve molded me into the designated baker of our family. My mom and I would bond over your recipes. I’d bake something new every week from your page and she’d casually ask…”is this another hit from John…?” as though you were part of the family. Unfortunately she passed suddenly a few months ago and I can’t watch one of your videos without thinking of her. Thank you for bringing us joy with every delicious bite . They are memories I will treasure forever💔
I made it for Thanksgiving , that was a huge success. And 3 days after Thanksgiving I still got neighbors knocking at my door , asking me if got leftovers,some of my guests couldn’t believe it was homemade. Thanks a lot for sharing this awesome recipe @PreppyKitchen
I baked this cake over the weekend! I think my hubby has eaten half of it. He did not want to wait for the frosting, because it smelled so good baking in the oven. I made him wait until it cooled, but he quickly ate 1, then 2 and finally 3 pieces. I cannot wait to make more of your bakes! Thank you!
I just made this cake! It turned out amazing!!! I did half of the recipe and added a little bit less sugar (only 1/2 cup, for half of the recipe) and omg!!!!! The cake melts in your mouth! First time making frosting ever and it turned out sooo well too! Thank you for this recipe!
I MADE THIS TODAY. IT WAS EASY AND FLAWLESS. you can use 2/3rds the sugar in the frosting and it tastes great. I put another teaspoon of cinnamon and a teaspoon of pumpkin spice mix. The cake is so fluffy and moist, just perfect texture. The frosting is sooo satisfying.
I have made many dishes following your recipes, and my Family loves coming to my parties ( they love your dishes). But what I really LOVE about your videos and tips is that you very clearly explain why we should do as you say. I am a huge fan of your talent and charisma. Thanks from Poland
Twice! Yes I made it twice this week... For my neighbor (who loved it and asked me for the recipe) and today for some friends... All of them were shocked!! I used homemade pumpkin pure (pumpkin from my vegetable garden). In one word, delicious. Thanks for the recipe.
I've always love pumpkin donuts but hate waiting until the fall for them to be on store shelves. Yesterday, I made this cake for my family with a brown butter cream cheese frosting and half a cup less of powdered sugar and OH MY GOD It was the best craving satisfaction ever. My family and I loved this cake. Thank you!
I was really wanting to bake something but I’m trying to control my type 2 diabetes. So once in a great while , if I find a recipe that I really want to try, I make it and let myself have a special treat. This was it. I like simple, straightforward baking. The only problem was it’s a big cake, so I cut the ingredients in half and it worked perfectly. Thank you.
I just made this cake and it was to die for!!! The cake was so light and fluffy! And the frosting was so creamy! Definitely a keeper! I’ll be making this again and again!!
Hey, John. I made this recipe in a Bundt pan as a pound cake. For the frosting, same recipe you posted + 3 tbsp of the mashed pumpkin. It came out with an orange hue to it and everyone loved both the cake and the frosting. Thanks for all the great recipes!
I honestly was USELESS when making cakes until this one. Even though my oven is too strong so it took me longer in a lower temp to have it baked evenly inside and out, this is the fluffiest most pillowy cake I have ever made. You are the best!!!
Made this pumpkin cake with a few walnuts and no frosting. And I made it the way you teach. All I can say is yummy yum to both. It’s a new favorite at my house. Thank you. I make all my Christmas cookies with your recipes. ❤
I made this and it was great. Instead of 1 large cake I made 2. 8 inch rounds. I gave 1 to my neighbor who is recovering from surgery. He absolutely loved it.
I made this cake for Thanksgiving. Even using gluten free flour, it was AMAZING!! The frosting is ridiculously good and now I’m spoiled for any other. I think the key really is in SIFTING all your dry ingredients (separately and then again together) before mixing in the wet. Anyway, just excellent. 10/10
Made this last night and finally a pumpkin puree recipe that comes out right, moist and fluffy (I tried many before and ended up with a dense bread feeling like it was not baked properly) so I'm happy and tastes so good! I let it cool down during the night and today I'm making the frosting ☺️
I made the cake last night. Delicious! I mixed both dry and wet ingredients like you said . It worked, I’m so glad. I will always do this from now on. Thank you for sharing
I'm not sure how I landed here, and I'm not sure it's good for my waistline. But I'm so happy to be here! Thank you for the recipe. What I love about your channel is how you explain some things that us who don't bake every day would not know. Like why not to use cold ingredients, for instance! I've already learned so much. Thank you!
This is the second time I'm making it and it's a hit. My neighbors, church friends, family-everybody love this unique cake flavor. I skipped the frosting, I used homegrown homemade pumpkin puree and into the batter I put in nutmeg, cinnamon, a pinch of cardamom, candied ginger, tiny bits of candied orange peel, sunflower seeds and chopped walnuts+cashewnuts. Thank you for this recipe I'm gonna keep making it with a different twist
I made this cake with half of the measurements and gluten free flour and it still turned out perfect!! So fluffy, moist and the spices give it an extraordinary smell and taste (I additionally added clove powder) 😁😁
John - my wife is the baker of the house, I cook everything else. I made this for her today and all she could do was laugh and say, "WOW!" The is literally my first try at baking anything sweet that didn't come from a box. Great Recipe!
It came out absolutely amazing. I added sugar to the frosting to my taste and made it less sweet. I used just nutmeg and cinnamon as spices. The cake had the perfect amount of sweetness, so fluffy and moist as well.
I had to come back and leave a comment! Made this last night and it’s absolutely delicious!!! Very moist and perfect in spices! Frosting wasn’t overly sweet and was fantastic with the pumpkin cake. The whole thing got eaten in less than a day! Everyone loved it!! Not to mention how easy it was to make! ❤❤❤❤
This recipe is delicious. I made it for my sister for her birthday, and she said it was the best pumpkin dessert ever. That is saying a lot because we love pumpkin in our family. Everyone loved it. It was slightly dry the first day, but after sitting overnight, some miracle happened and it was so moist and creamy. I didn't take mine out of the pan because I ran out of time, and it was perfect that way.
Just made it! It’s the best ever pumpkin cake I ever ate. Usually I’m not into whatever pumpkin but this recipe is certainly a keeper. The texture is fluffy and delicate like a cloud. And I used Libby’s brand as John suggested and weighed flour instead of using measuring cup. So delicious!
I’m seriously about to binge watch all of the recipes that catches my eye. I never knew how ez baking is with your instructions & your appreciation & emphasis on how delicious baked goods are.
This is the best Pumpkin Cake recipe EVER! This has been such a hit that family & friends that we had a few requests during the holidays. We love Preppy Kitchen and I'm currently writing this as we make John's Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe.
OMG! Thank you so much! Everyone loved this cake. This was by far the moistest and tastiest homemade cake ever. I have Costco's pumpkin spice and used this instead and used some ground cardamom as you had suggested. For the frosting, I did the brown butter, cream cheese, and only 2 c. Powdered sugar, it was perfect! Made it last night, brought 2/3 to work, coworkers really liked it. Thank you so much for the recipe! 🥰
I love pumpkin recipes! They taste good and make the kitchen smell so inviting. Going to give this cake a try. My usual pumpkin cake is a mix of pie and cake. You just mix up the recipe for pumpkin pie, pour it into a 9X13 pan, then sprinkle a cake mix--either yellow, white, or spice--over the mixture, then pour a stick of melted butter over it, and bake till the custard is done, about 40 minutes.
This cake turned out so good. It will be my new Thanksgiving traditional desert! It is better than Pumpkin Pie. Thank you for sharing the recipe and showing how to make it turn out terrific! I used a fresh pumpkin and followed your instruction to purée it. You are awesome!
We just made this cake yesterday and it is Delicious! Very easy to put together. The frosting is so good too, but you could just serve with a little powdered sugar the cake is that moist. Thanks for the recipe!
I made your pumpkin chocolate chip cookies twice last year, and used brown butter, and they tasted like HEAVEN. They were so perfect. I will be making your pumpkin pie this Saturday, and I am SO excited. I've never had or made it, so this will be a treat for me and my family. I will make this cake next weekend.
This was really delicious and a hit at the dinner party. It was so easy that I had finished the cake better in no time, and thought I must have missed steps. Nope! Just simply delicious.
When I woke this morning, the radio announcer stated today is Pumpkin Spice Day. So I baked this for my colleagues. They really liked it. Thank you so much. :)
Glad you mentioned you can add your own scratch-made pumpkin puree. Kept it all in the freezer after I finished making it a week or so ago and I finally found an exciting recipe to make.
John, I was planning on making a pumpkin bread or pumpkin pies until I saw this recipe. I just made this yesterday and it was awesome 5*****'s! I also followed the "tips" and could not believe that the line about the flour made so much of a difference. Light, moist and flavorful. "DISHLICIOUS!"
so I made this today and the family is complimenting it so a success! I somehow used a smaller pan so it was not done in the stated time as it was thicker in the middle however I just added some time and it was fine. The other thing I did was cut back on the sugar it just sounded so sweet and I less area to need to cover as well so I followed the recipe exactly except for the sugar I used just over 2 cups vs 3, it was very tasty. thanks for the detailed instructions I am a dolt in the kitchen so I had it out in front of me and rewound and watched quite a bit. Can't wait to try another one.
Absolutely not doing this again,it was soo good that I ate 4 slices lol,the cake is so soft and moist,not gummy,just perfectly fluffy and MELTS in your mouth,and the cream cheese frosting makes it irresistible.AMAZING❤
Dear sir.I checkup few of deferred people recipe 4 pumpkin cakes and i decided to try today your recipe..with my daughter.we use a big pumpkin cut it and boiling drain.600g.5 eggs.and extra ingred. Baking 1h.160c.came very nice.thank u.
Thank you for the Ted talk in mixing up a cake! I appreciate this tip! I have over mixed a few pound cakes in the past and wondered why they turned out gummy after it cooled. I now know the importance of not over mixing a cake. This Cake looks so moist and delicious. I can’t wait to make it!
I made this yesterday. Wow, the texture of the cake is amazing and the spices are the perfect amount, so many cakes the spices can be overwhelming, but this cake is perfect. And the frosting? Yeah, I was like a kid and licked off the beaters lol
I just made this cake last night. I let it rest over night cuz I heard that cake is always better the next day. Well I must say, this cake came out SOOOO DANG GOOD! 😮💨🤤 I’ve never made a pumpkin cake before, but now this is gonna be the go to recipe for me! Definitely gonna bake another for my fam! Thanks John! 🫶🏼 Edit*** I made this for the potluck at my work and it was a hit ! Every slice was gone within an hour ! 😭 Please follow this step by step recipe and make one for yourself, you will not regret it! 🤩
Made this cake twice already. Yesterday, I made it to dole out to neighbors as we gave out candy to SO MANY KIDS (its Salem, MA, so there are lots)! Cut the confectioner/icing sugar in half for the frosting, but added a tablespoon of bourbon to it. I also garnish it with slivers of candied ginger. Next time, I want to try walnuts or dates and up the spices.
I have used your recipe many times and it's amazing. Everyone loves it. I have made many of your recipes and they always turn out so great. Thanks for what you do.
You’re amazing!!! Absolutely love your videos and I watch it anyway even if I am not going to make it. Your smile, the way you speak is all so refreshing
I think you are one of the best I made this cake I have a large family they came the day after I made it they all came back for seconds thank you so much I love your scones to.
I just made this cake for my family and they absolutely LOVED it!! It is not common in my country to use pumpkin in desserts, so I was a bit nervous that we won't like the taste but we all enjoyed it very much. Thank you
One of my seasonal favorites! I like to add cloves to my batter. Also spiced pepitas make a beautiful garnish on the cream cheese icing. Can’t wait to try your version! 😋
I am FOREVER in your debt, as you taught me (in this video) one very important thing that I was doing wrong and could never understand why……the overmixing the flour into the batter and the SINKING of the titanic !! I followed your example and this is the first cake that hasn’t ‘deflated’ !! SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THAT TIP
I have added dark chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, walnuts amd dates to my pumpkin bread recipe at times. Butterscotch was really popular at a work potluck.
Made this cake with homemade pumpkin puree (with normal pumpkin). Still turned out soo good. Everyone liked so much at home that I made one for my friend and she gave it to her colleagues also. We all never had pumpkin cakes before as sugar pumpkins are not available in our area. Everyone liked so much and was amazed when they got to know it was pumpkin cake. Thank you for the recipe. ❤ from India.
same as given in the recipe. If your puree is a little watery, it may need a few more minutes for baking. other than that, it is all good. @@sumayyakhan9095
I can't wait to make this for my family on Thanksgiving this year you basically made me the baker of my family and glad to see so many easy and nice treats to make
This was delicious. Very easy recipe--I love using the entire can of pumpkin. The spices were in perfect combination, texture is perfect, instructions are great. Thank you!
I already made this recipe 3 times since I discovered it about a month ago It melts in your mouth, simply amazing I prefer a little crunch, so next time I'll try and add some pecan nuts
This video was so relaxing to watch. I'm going to make this right now, and will definitely buy the book if it turns out well! I knew NOT over mixing was important, but will be even more careful knowing that it can make a bigger difference than I thought.
Who’s coming to my book tour?? You can see all the details here -> preppykitchen.com/come-meet-me-on-tour/
Wish I could John!
My daughter and I might drive to NYC from Saratoga Springs to see you! 💕
Just ordered your book and So excited about it! Wish you were going to be in Tennessee!
Wish you were hitting Omaha, NE! I've been baking "with you" for years now. :)
I wish I could, too! Any chance you"ll be in Massachusetts?
John, I have declared my whole life that I am not a baker. Nothing I ever made ever came out right…. Until now!! It actually brought a tear to my eye how beautifully this cake turned out.

A great teacher never holds the secret to himself. He shares his knowledge so others can succeed. You did that.
Thank you, John. 😊
Wonder if that was the problem with my 🎃 n roll? 🥴
Just popped mine in the oven can’t wait to see how it turns out! Over the years, you’ve molded me into the designated baker of our family. My mom and I would bond over your recipes. I’d bake something new every week from your page and she’d casually ask…”is this another hit from John…?” as though you were part of the family.

They are memories I will treasure forever💔
So sorry for your loss. 🙏🏼
@@crystalb8612 thank you so much 💚
so glad preppy kitchen has brought your family together ❤️ sorry for your loss
sorry for your loss this touched me and so happy you had those moments together and long lasting memories
I feel so bad for you, hope as the day goes you will feel a little better, God and time is the best medication.
I made it for Thanksgiving , that was a huge success. And 3 days after Thanksgiving I still got neighbors knocking at my door , asking me if got leftovers,some of my guests couldn’t believe it was homemade. Thanks a lot for sharing this awesome recipe @PreppyKitchen
I love that he teaches while he cooks. Truly thankful
It’s like he can read my mind and desires
Desires 😂🔥
His ability to do that is astounding. He must be to fun cook and bake with.
Oh boy.... the depravity.
haha wait because in february i was looking for a good red velvet recipe for my moms birthday and he uploaded a red velvet cake recipe the next day
Yes, indeed.
Enjoy!
😋

I love the combo of cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and nutmeg. Makes any pumpkin great!!!
Twice! Yes I made it twice this week... For my neighbor (who loved it and asked me for the recipe) and today for some friends... All of them were shocked!! I used homemade pumpkin pure (pumpkin from my vegetable garden). In one word, delicious. Thanks for the recipe.
Just bake this today….OOOOOMMMMMMGGGG delicious, with the browned butter in the frosting is out of this world. Thank you!
I love how he talks us through the science of his baking
I've always love pumpkin donuts but hate waiting until the fall for them to be on store shelves. Yesterday, I made this cake for my family with a brown butter cream cheese frosting and half a cup less of powdered sugar and OH MY GOD
It was the best craving satisfaction ever. My family and I loved this cake. Thank you!

I love your attention to details and how you explain things. That's what you're such a good baker and a wonderful teacher. Thank you.🌿
Hey, John. I made this recipe in a Bundt pan as a pound cake. For the frosting, same recipe you posted + 3 tbsp of the mashed pumpkin. It came out with an orange hue to it and everyone loved both the cake and the frosting. Thanks for all the great recipes!
John, I made this for the ladies at church it turned out beautifully. Thank you for sharing your talent and love of baking.
So GOOD! I decreased the oil and sugar amount.
Just follow the instructions, my siblings loved it!!! I'm making it for the second time.
I honestly was USELESS when making cakes until this one. Even though my oven is too strong so it took me longer in a lower temp to have it baked evenly inside and out, this is the fluffiest most pillowy cake I have ever made. You are the best!!!
This recipe is so tantalising to the taste buds. Nothing complicated, thank you so much
Made this pumpkin cake with a few walnuts and no frosting. And I made it the way you teach. All I can say is yummy yum to both. It’s a new favorite at my house. Thank you. I make all my Christmas cookies with your recipes. ❤
I made this and it was great. Instead of 1 large cake I made 2. 8 inch rounds. I gave 1 to my neighbor who is recovering from surgery. He absolutely loved it.
Thank you! I have two round pans. Was worried I didn't have one like John is using and was wondering if it would work in the round ones.❤
I made this cake for Thanksgiving. Even using gluten free flour, it was AMAZING!! The frosting is ridiculously good and now I’m spoiled for any other. I think the key really is in SIFTING all your dry ingredients (separately and then again together) before mixing in the wet. Anyway, just excellent. 10/10
Made this last night and finally a pumpkin puree recipe that comes out right, moist and fluffy (I tried many before and ended up with a dense bread feeling like it was not baked properly) so I'm happy and tastes so good! I let it cool down during the night and today I'm making the frosting ☺️

Thank you for this recipe I'm gonna keep making it with a different twist
I’m just going to say it…in case you haven’t heard it in a while! You’re the best!
Thank you…I made this tonight and it was a hit with my family!
I made this cake with half of the measurements and gluten free flour and it still turned out perfect!! So fluffy, moist and the spices give it an extraordinary smell and taste (I additionally added clove powder) 😁😁
May I please ask what you mean by half of the measure? I want to do this GF, too.
@@evelynkessinger4714 so 120g flour instead of 240g and so on... since I made it in a smaller tray and for myself only :)
John, you are so gifted...
I just baked this delicious pumpkin cake this weekend and cannot believe how perfect it is! I added more spices and it works.
John - my wife is the baker of the house, I cook everything else. I made this for her today and all she could do was laugh and say, "WOW!" The is literally my first try at baking anything sweet that didn't come from a box. Great Recipe!

Yum! I served it with whipped cream and it was delicious! You’re a great teacher, thank you.
so I made this today and the family is complimenting it so a success!

I think you are one of the best I made this cake I have a large family they came the day after I made it they all came back for seconds thank you so much I love your scones to.
I just made this cake for my family and they absolutely LOVED it!! It is not common in my country to use pumpkin in desserts, so I was a bit nervous that we won't like the taste but we all enjoyed it very much. Thank you
I love Libby's Pumpkin and your pumpkin recipes.
One of my seasonal favorites! I like to add cloves to my batter. Also spiced pepitas make a beautiful garnish on the cream cheese icing. Can’t wait to try your version! 😋
I’m all about clove too!
That sounds good.
I put a few dashes in mine, it is tasty.
I am FOREVER in your debt, as you taught me (in this video) one very important thing that I was doing wrong and could never understand why……the overmixing the flour into the batter and the SINKING of the titanic !! I followed your example and this is the first cake that hasn’t ‘deflated’ !! SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THAT TIP
I just backed it and it turned out great! I love your recipes! Thank you!!!!
Baked it with my daughter yesterday, it's soooooo tender, juicy and delicious. Thanks for this autumnal recipe!!!
I have added dark chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, walnuts amd dates to my pumpkin bread recipe at times. Butterscotch was really popular at a work potluck.
I had to just turn around and make one for myself. Can't wait to try it
Made this cake with homemade pumpkin puree (with normal pumpkin). Still turned out soo good. Everyone liked so much at home that I made one for my friend and she gave it to her colleagues also. We all never had pumpkin cakes before as sugar pumpkins are not available in our area. Everyone liked so much and was amazed when they got to know it was pumpkin cake. Thank you for the recipe. ❤ from India.
How many cups of homemade puree did you use?
same as given in the recipe. If your puree is a little watery, it may need a few more minutes for baking. other than that, it is all good. @@sumayyakhan9095
I can't wait to make this for my family on Thanksgiving this year you basically made me the baker of my family and glad to see so many easy and nice treats to make
Just tried this recipe last night, it is like cloud! So soft and moist :) thank you for sharing
Made this cake, it's amazing! Everyone loved it!
Woah, I love your helpful tips. I’m so excited to explore your feed.
Love the idea of using the scoop for adding the icing!
I just made this pumpkin cake tonight for my family and it’s delicious
I baked it and it's unbelievably delicious, thank you ❤️
This was delicious. Very easy recipe--I love using the entire can of pumpkin. The spices were in perfect combination, texture is perfect, instructions are great. Thank you!
I already made this recipe 3 times since I discovered it about a month ago
It melts in your mouth, simply amazing
I prefer a little crunch, so next time I'll try and add some pecan nuts
This video was so relaxing to watch. I'm going to make this right now, and will definitely buy the book if it turns out well! I knew NOT over mixing was important, but will be even more careful knowing that it can make a bigger difference than I thought.
Made this recipe a couple of days ago, OMG!!! so good!! everyone loved it!!
I think I found one of my desserts for thanksgiving! This looks amazing!
Honestly, the "Ted talk" on over mixing was helpful 😁
Awesome Pumpkin cake. Just made it a few days ago. I added a sprinkle of chopped pecans on top. Yum!
