Method
Prepare the Cake
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, vegetable oil, and eggs until smooth.
- In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Make the Salted Caramel Sauce
- In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the sugar, stirring constantly until it turns a deep amber color.
- Carefully add the butter and stir until melted and combined.
- Slowly pour in the heavy cream while stirring continuously until smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in the sea salt. Let cool slightly before using.
Assemble the Cake
- Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the salted caramel sauce over the top.
- Slice and serve the cake, drizzling additional caramel sauce on individual servings if desired.
