Ingredients
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1/4 tsp ground cloves
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 4 eggs
- 2/3 cup pureed pumpkin**
- 1/2 cup real maple syrup***
- 1/2 cup melted coconut oil
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F (180 C). Line an 8x8 inch square or round baking pan with parchment paper or grease it with coconut oil.
- In a large bowl, whisk together coconut flour, spices, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, then add in pumpkin, maple syrup, coconut oil and vanilla.
- Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients. Mix completely and let batter rest for 3 minutes. Once batter has rested, mix again. This is a necessary step for the coconut flour to absorb all the water. It may seem thick and clumpy, this is normal.
- Spoon batter into cake pan. Bake for 30 minutes on convection setting or 35+ on normal bake setting or until a fork inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Let cool for 10 minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely. Serve with coconut milk vanilla ice cream. EnJOY!
- Store in fridge for up to 5 days or tightly wrapped in the freezer for a month.
