Makes 2
These fun and fluffy mini pumpkin Bundt cakes are vegan and paleo and are made using an easy dairy-free glaze. They are an adorable and delicious Halloween treat.
• 180g (6.3 oz) pumpkin purée
• 125g (4.4 oz) almond butter
• 160g (5.6 oz) maple syrup
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
• 30g (1 oz) coconut flour
• 30g (1 oz) tapioca flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• ¼ tsp salt
To decorate:
• 40g (1.4 oz) dark chocolate chips, melted
• 130g (4.5 oz) powdered (icing) sugar
• 1-2 tbsp almond milk
• Optional: a few drops vegan red and yellow food colouring
• 2 dark chocolate peanut butter cups
(e.g. Love Raw, Deliciously Ella)
• Sprinkles for decorating
You will also need:
• 4 mini Bundt pans/moulds
1 Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4.
2 Whisk together pumpkin, almond butter, maple syrup, and vanilla. Add flours, spices, baking powder, and salt. Stir to combine.
3 Divide into 4 greased mini Bundt pans, and bake for 30 minutes until golden on top and spring back when lightly pressed.
4 Cool completely.
5 Cut off excess cake with a bread knife to flatten the bottoms (bigger side) of each Bundt cake. Use melted chocolate as the ‘glue’ to stack into 2 pumpkins.
6 Whisk together powdered sugar and almond milk to make the glaze. Add food colouring if desired.
7 Drizzle glaze on top of the pumpkins, place a peanut butter cup in the top to make the stem, add sprinkles, and refrigerate until glaze is set.
