How to Make Pumpkin Spice Coffee Cake:

Combine the softened butter, sugar, and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl.
Beat with mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add eggs in one at a time.
Next, add the vanilla and pumpkin, beating between each addition.
In separate bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and pumpkin spice.
Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and beat until well incorporated.
Prepare the pumpkin spice filling by combining the butter, pumpkin spice, flour, and brown sugar in a medium bowl.
Stir until the mixture is well combined and resembles coarse sand.
Spread the half of the cake batter in the bottom of the prepared pan. Top with the filling mixture.
Spread the remaining cake batter over the top of the filling.
Prepare the topping by blending the butter, flour, brown sugar, and pumpkin spice in a medium bowl until pea-sized crumbles form.
Sprinkle the mixture over the top of the cake.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool completely before slicing and serving.
