- 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup (150g) coconut sugar or brown sugar
- 1/2 cup (120g) full fat Greek yogurt
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1/3 cup (80ml) avocado oil
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour for streusel

- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup (60g) chopped pecans
- 1/2 cup (60g) powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons milk
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch pan. Line with parchment paper with an overhang makes it easy to lift the whole cake out later.
- In a separate large bowl, whisk the pumpkin, yogurt, eggs, sugar, oil, and vanilla until the color is a uniform deep orange.
- Fold the dry ingredients into the wet until no white streaks of flour remain. Stop immediately once mixed to avoid tough gluten development.
- Rub the cold cubed butter into the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and pecans until it looks like coarse, clumpy sand.
- Spread the pumpkin mixture into the pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the top, pressing down very lightly so it sticks.
- Bake Place in the center of the oven for 45 minutes until a toothpick comes out with only a few moist crumbs.
- Let the cake sit in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- Whisk the glaze ingredients and drizzle over the cake until the white lines set against the dark streusel.
