60 Calorie Pumpkin Spice Latte Cake


Pumpkin Spice Lattes are back at Starbucks! Unfortunately their pumpkin spice syrup contains milk :( So I have to resort to making my own - stay tuned for my skinny/dairy free version of the actual latte

For now, you'll just have to settle for a Cake version of this fall treat - This really tastes like a Pumpkin Spice Latte in cake form, so if you aren't a big fan of coffee you may want to decrease the amount of coffee grounds - personally I thought the Pumpkin Spice flavored Coffee grounds smelled heavenly when I made this cake. 
Pro-tip: don't skimp on the whipped topping if you really want this to taste like a Pumpkin Spice Latte

This is under 60 Calories - Gluten free, Dairy free, and Vegan!




Recipe:
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon Pumpkin Puree - 25 calories
2 tablespoons Unsweetened Apple Sauce - 12 calories
1 tablespoon Oat Flour - 22 calories
1 tablespoon Pumpkin Spice Coffee Grounds(or regular)
1 tablespoon Stevia                                                            
= 59 calories total

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
2. Mix together the pumpkin, apple sauce, flour, coffee grounds, and stevia
3. Pour the batter into a small greased cake or loaf pan(I used a mini fluted cake pan)
4. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the middle of the exposed part of the cake is set - serve with Whipped Topping for a true Pumpkin Spice Latte flavor :)
