This Pumpkin Maple Cake with Chocolate Coconut Buttercream Frosting is gluten free, paleo, dairy free, soy free, grain free and DELICIOUS! I can’t explain to you just how good this cake is. Really it is that good, dense, moist, has so much pumpkin flavor and the chocolate coconut buttercream frosting is the perfect matrimony of flavors.

My new obsession is making dishes into gluten free and paleo. I sit with my pen and paper, scratching out ingredients, using my calculator to try and figure out the exact measurements. When it comes to baking I have to make sure that I have enough wet to dry ingredients so I don’t end up with a soupy mess. This Paleo Pumpkin Maple cake is a remake of my Pumpkin Cake with Dark Chocolate Buttercream Frosting recipe. When I first mixed up the batter and poured it into the pan it had me worried, it seemed a little wet and I was convinced I had flubbed up the measurements.
Boy-o-boy was I wrong. This cake is so darn dense and moist and I used my homemade pumpkin spice mix recipe to ensure that the cake tasted like pumpkin. The frosting flavor is heightened by using organic coconut sugar in place of powdered sugar.
This recipe is perfect for serving all throughout the fall season, even as a Thanksgiving dessert.
