About

Whatever you might be expecting from this Pumpkin Crisp Bake, you may find yourself pleasantly surprised! Instead of apple, of course, this crisp uses extra creamy and warmly spiced pumpkin filling, but it's the topping that will really catch you off guard in the best way. Instead of a traditional streusel, Pumpkin Crisp Bake uses something more akin to a dump cake, with the tender yellow cake and melted butter, to make something rich and wonderful! Don't worry, buttery pecans baked on top ensure this dessert has all the crunch you could want! Switch up your sweets and you won't be sorry!
