Ingredients

  • 1 cup + 3 tablespoons whole-wheat pastry flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup coconut palm sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk can also use regular milk
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla

Topping:

  • 1/3 cup coconut palm sugar
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 1/4 cups boiling water

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a medium sized bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt, coconut sugar and spices until combined. Set aside.
  • In a smaller bowl, stir pumpkin, milk, applesauce and vanilla together. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir together. It should form a thick batter. Pour into a small 8-inch casserole dish with high sides.
  • In a separate bowl, stir coconut sugar and pecans together. Spread over the top of the batter evenly. Pour hot water over the entire thing. Do NOT stir!
  • Bake for 40 minutes or until the middle is set. {Be sure to place on a baking sheet incase it bubbles over.} Cool 5-10 minutes before serving. Serve with more pecans and whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, if desired.
