Paleo Pumpkin Cake with PB & Cacao Nib Topping

I haven't posted in so long! I've had so many things going on, all VERY exciting!
Here is a recipe I winged while at my sisters this weekend.

For the Pumpkin Cake
- 3/4 Can of Pumpkin Purée
- 4 Eggs
- 2 Cups Almond Flour (Ground Almonds)
- 2 tsp Cinnamon
- 2 tsp Ginger
- 1 Tbsp Stevia (I would have used honey if it had been available at the time and probably used 2 tbsp)
- 1 tsp Baking Soda

Toppings
- Roughly 5 Tbsp Chunky Peanut Butter (I say roughly as I spread on each piece as I ate)
- 1 cup Cacao Nibs

* Pre heat oven to 180'c.
* Line a small rectangular tin with baking paper. This recipe can also easily be made into a loaf!
* Mix together your eggs and pumpkin until smooth.
* Add your Cinnamon and Ginger and stir well. If you can smell the spices strongly, you're doing well!
* Add your almond flour, stevia and baking soda and mix well until completely combined. (Your mixture should be like a cake mixture consistency)
* Pour into tin and bake for 25mins if in wider rectangle tin, and 35mins if in loaf tin.
* Allow to cool, and then decide whether you want to smooth over your peanut butter and sprinkle on the cacao nibs, or whether to do it on individual pieces as your consume!

Paleo Maple Cinnamon Protein Pancakes

I've been neglecting posting all of my recipes for a few days, sometimes it's because I'm terrible at making them up as I go and forgetting what I did ha!
These guys deserve a big mention though!
I'm currently suffering the 'lady' cravings, and these definately hit the spot, although I want to add that although these are paleo and clean, you don't want to be eating these ALL the time like my other pancakes... These guys have a higher sugar content from the maple syrup.

Pancakes

- 2 egg whites
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
- 1 scoop natural hemp protein
- 2 tbsp almond flour (ground almonds)
- 2 heaped tbsp coconut flour
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Toppings

- 1 heaped tsp raw chocolate hemp spread
- 1 heaped tsp raw pecan butter
- handful of pecan nuts
- drizzle of pure maple syrup

* Put a good non stick pan on LOW heat.
* Mix together egg whites, almond milk and maple syrup.
* Add your protein powder and almond flour and mix well.
* Now add your coconut flour a little at a time and mix. The reason for this is because coconut flour can dry mixture out very quickly if too much is used. You want a thick cake consistency.
* Add your cinnamon and mix well until all combined and smooth.
* Add mixture to pan in whatever pancake shapes you fancy and be patient to let them cook on LOW so they don't burn. Once the top has bubbles across the top it's time to flip them.
* Scoop on your chocolate spread, and pecan butter, sprinkle on your pecans and then drizzle over the syrup.
* Trust me, you want to enjoy these ones! AMAZING!
