Ingredients
Note: This is an overview of the ingredients. See the recipe card for full information on ingredients and quantities.
Pumpkin puree: I used homemade pumpkin puree (learn how to make pumpkin puree from scratch). You can also use canned pumpkin puree.
Egg: I used 2 large eggs at room temperature.
Butter: For a buttery taste.
Cream cheese: I used Philadelphia cream cheese.
Baking powder: It is important for a better cake texture.
Vanilla extract: For extra flavor.
Flour: I used almond flour and lightened it a little bit with a tiny amount of coconut flour.
Erythritol: To sweeten the cake.
Spices: I used ground cinnamon, ground Ginger and pinch of salt.
For the cream cheese frosting, I used Philadelphia cream cheese, powdered Erythritol and cinnamon.
Topping: I topped my cake with pecans. You may use any topping, such as pumpkin seeds, sliced almonds, or chocolate ganache.
