Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350℉ and line an 8x8-inch dish with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Prepare the streusel topping. Add the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and vanilla extract to a mixing bowl. Use a spoon (or your hands work best) and cut the ingredients together until a crumble forms. This may take 4-5 minutes Set streusel topping aside for later.
- Next, add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon into a bowl and toss together. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, cream the brown sugar, maple syrup, and avocado oil with an electric mixer.
- Next, add the vanilla extract, eggs, pumpkin puree, and Greek yogurt and mix to combine.
- Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until combined.
- Transfer the batter to the baking dish and top with the streusel topping. Bake the cake for 20 minutes, cover it with a tin foil tent, and bake for another 20 minutes. Remove the cake from the oven if the middle of the cake is mostly baked (it will continue to bake for a few minutes after you remove it from the oven).
- Let the cake cool for 15 minutes before serving.
