1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1/4 cup milk

For the Topping:

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8 inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar.
- In another bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish.
