There's a pumpkin shortage

I've been to 5 grocery stores / supermarkets and can't find a can of pumpkin. If you have one, better hang on to it. I gave my stash to my daughter last Christmas and figured there'd be more, but there isn't it. Apparently a freeze in 2008-09 growing season caused the problem.

Now I'm wondering what I can substitute for canned pumpkin in my Pumpkin cheese coffee cake recipe. Applesauce? Pineapple? Sweet potato?
