Paleomg Coffee Cake (w/ Pumpkin Spice)

So I made this Coffee Cake and it was so good. It's definatly not your usual coffee crumb cake as it has a more dense spongy texture from the bananas and eggs, but for someone who doesn't get bread this was amazing!  I loved that I didn't feel guilty eating it!  PLUS I made this recipe a little more interesting by adding Pumpkin Spice to it and I LOVED it!!  The topping is ANAZING!!!   I had to cook it about 10 more minutes longer than the her recipe called for.  You can find the recipe here

Ingredients

• 3 brown bananas, mashed
• ¼ cup maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• ½ cup almond butter (or other nut/seed butter)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 8.5×4.5 baking dish with oil then line the middle with parchment paper. It will make it easier to remove from the pan without it coming apart.
2. In a large bowl, mix together bananas, maple syrup, vanilla extract, eggs, and almond butter.
3. Then add coconut flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and salt and mix well.
4. Pour batter into baking dish. Place on a baking sheet.
5. In a small bowl, add butter, coconut sugar, almond flour, cinnamon, and pecans. Use your hands to mix the toppings together.
6. Place chunks of the toppings all around the top of the banana bread mixture.
7. Place in oven to bake for 50 minutes.
8. Remove from oven, place on cooling rack and let rest for 5-10 minutes before cutting and serving.

Enjoy!!
