Pumpkin Spice Latte Crumb Cake


  
Moist, sweet and spicy pumpkin cake full of canned pumpkin, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, all spice and clove then topped with a cinnamon crunchy streusel with a hint of coffee.
This is the first recipe of several that I will be making this year that has the glorious pumpkin spice.
Pumpkin spice has ground cinnamon, ground ginger, ground nutmeg, ground clove and ground all spice.
School supplies at the store are disappearing from the shelves and being replaced with Halloween/Autumn decor. *happy dance*
Even thou it is still a balmy 90 degrees outside pumpkin spice items are starting to appear as well. I for one is so happy about it.

The recipe is slightly different from crumb cakes that you may have seen, this has browned butter.
