1-Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray an 8 by 8-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.

2-In a mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour (140g), 1 cup cornmeal (170g), 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves for 20 seconds. Create a well in the center and set aside for easy mixing later.

3-In a separate bowl, break up 1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar (110g) with your fingertips until no clumps remain. Add 1/4 cup melted butter (56g) and 1 cup canned pumpkin (244g), then whisk to combine for a smooth base.

4-Mix in 1/2 cup sour cream (122g) and 2 large eggs until well blended. Pour this wet mixture into the well in the dry ingredients, then fold gently until combined with no streaks of flour, giving you a perfect batter.

5-Pour the batter into the prepared dish and spread it evenly for uniform baking and a great texture.

6-Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let it cool slightly on a wire rack, then cut into squares for serving.

7-For the whipped cinnamon honey butter, whip 1/2 cup butter (113g) in a bowl or stand mixer until smooth. Add 1/3 cup honey (105g), 1/4 cup powdered sugar (30g), and 1 teaspoon cinnamon; mix on low speed until combined, then increase speed and whip until light and fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes.
