Paleo Pumpkin Spice Cake Bars
- 1/2 cups Plus 2 Tablespoons Pure, Canned Pumpkin
- 3/4 cups Packed Coconut Sugar
- 1 Egg
- 1 Egg Yolk
- 1/2 Tablespoons Vanilla Extract
- 3/4 cups Plus 2 Tablespoons Almond Meal (or 90g, See Note)
- 2 Tablespoons Coconut Flour (or 12g, See Note)
- 3/4 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda
- 1/4 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 2- 1/2 teaspoons Pumpkin Pie Spice
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line an 8x8 inch pan with parchment paper, leaving a small overhang up the sides of the pan.
- Rub any exposed edges of the pan lightly with coconut oil.
- In a large bowl, using an electric hand mixer, beat together pumpkin and coconut sugar until well combined.
- Add egg, egg yolk and vanilla extract and beat until smooth, scraping down the sides as necessary.
- Add the almond meal, coconut flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice and stir until well combined and smooth.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and let stand for 5 minutes to allow the coconut flour to begin absorbing the moisture.
- Bake until the top is dark brown, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 3740 mins.
- Let cool completely before slicing into bars and devouring.
- Note: Its wise to weigh your flours with gluten-free baking, as the ratios are extremely important.
- Also, make sure your flours are not lumpy.
