04 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

→ Dry Ingredients

05 - 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

# Steps:

01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
02 - In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
03 - Add the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg to the wet mixture. Stir until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
04 - Fold in the light brown sugar, chopped walnuts, and 1/2 cup caramel sauce until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
