Personal Pumpkin Cake

Today I wanted to make a healthier, smaller dessert.  We already have 4-5 different desserts in our fridge and because they don't finish fast here, I made sure to bake something that would not add to the collection.

Preheat oven @ 350 deg F. Bake ~20 min.


 1/4 cup white flour
1 pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, baking powder, baking soda, salt
1 egg
1 1/2 tbsp of light agave syrup
1/2 tbsp brown sugar
1/4 cup canned pumpkin
1 tbsp milk
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1/2 tsp vanilla extract


 Topped it with shredded coconut + more cinnamon


 Really tasty, warm, and fluffy.


I made some alterations to this recipe, mine is more "cake" and the original is more "bar".
Also, this was my first time using agave syrup.


The light one tastes like honey and can be used to replace artificial sweeteners.  
I want to use spelt flour and coconut oil in future baking and see if any there's any difference in taste.  
But anyway, this cake is good!
