All the best flavors of fall in this delicious low carb Pumpkin Spice Bundt Cake with a sugar-free caramel glaze. Grain-free and keto friendly.
Wait! Stop what you are doing immediately. Drop everything and pay attention. This is big. This is huge. This is momentous! Do you know what this is? Do you realize the importance of this moment? Are you ready? Are you sure you’re ready? Are you sure you’re sure? Because this, my friends, THIS is the first new pumpkin recipe of season! Phew! Can you believe it? Aren’t you dancing with excitement? Doesn’t this just make you giddy all over?
No? Wait…what? Did you just say no? Oh man, I am totally crushed. I was expecting to hear shouts of joy across the land. I was expecting drum rolls and fireworks. I was expecting you all to bow down before me as the goddess of low carb pumpkin recipes. Alas, I may have built this up a little too much in my mind. I have a habit of that.
I jest, of course. But I do love pumpkin season and I get pretty excited about it. And I know many of you do as well. I try not to jump in too early but once September rolls around, all pumpkin recipes are fair game. I try to hold off until at least after Labour Day but sometimes I can’t make it that long. I think I might have opened my first can this year on September 1st exactly. I think that’s fair, right?
Now go open your first (or third, or eighth, or whatever) can of pumpkin and make this gorgeous cake. It’s awesomely delicious!
Pumpkin Caramel Bundt Cake
Ingredients
Cake:
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/2 cup coconut flour
- 2/3 cup Swerve sweetener
- 1/3 cup unflavored whey protein powder
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp ginger
- 1/4 tsp cloves
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1/2 to 2/3 cup water
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Glaze:
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 tsp molasses or Yacon syrup, for color and flavor
- 1/2 cup powdered Swerve sweetener
- 1/2 tsp caramel flavour
- 2 tbsp whipping cream
Instructions
Cake:
- Preheat oven to 325F and grease a 9-inch bundt pan very well.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, sweetener, protein powder, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, ginger, and cloves.
- Stir in the pumpkin puree, eggs, butter, 1/2 cup water, and vanilla extract. If your puree is very thin, you probably won’t have to add more water. If it is thicker, add enough water to make the batter spreadable (it should not be so thin as to be pourable).
- Transfer batter to prepared bundt pan and bake 55 to 60 minutes, or until cake is set and a tester inserted in center comes out clean. Remove and let cool 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Glaze:
- In a small saucepan over low heat, melt butter with molasses or yacon syrup, stirring until smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in powdered sweetener, caramel extract and whipping cream. Drizzle over cooled cake.

I just put this cake in the oven! 2 comments/questions. 1. the recipe says to let it cool for 15 minutes then put on wire rack. I assume you mean to turn the cake out of the pan after 15 minutes? 2. I can’t find caramel flavor . I think I won’t glaze it with anything. Maybe slice and toast and put cream cheese on it! Carolyn, I want to thank you for all of the wonderful recipes, it makes being a Diabetic a bit easier!
You can just use vanilla extract if you can’t find caramel flavour.
I found caramel flavor extract at Walmart in Ca. That is the only store I could find it. Hope that helps.
Can you share what you use for the caramel flavour? Thank you!!!
This is the one I have. http://amzn.to/2cr7jvp
I just want you to know that I use your recipes all the time. They have yet to disappoint. Pretty much always a win. Thank you for what you do.
Lovely to hear! Thanks.
Thank you so much for adding your recipe here. I too cannot get asweetlife website to work. Sometimes it will come up, but then it will not display the recipe…..only the ads!
I got the same message on my iPhone.
I’ve added the recipe to my own site for the time being, because of these issues. Hope you come back and check it out! 🙂
I had no trouble accessing the site. I’d recommend trying again. 🙂 Can’t wait to try this, Carolyn… Thanks!
Got the same message that the recipe is on an unsafe site…… 🙁

Hi Carolyn, I posted this on your Facebook page as well. When I try to click on the link to the recipe I am taken to a ‘warning’ that the site has malware. I went to asweetlife.org and still get this ‘warning’ when I try to see the recipe. I think the link has the malware or the ‘warning’ is the malware. Of course I didn’t click on any of the links so I cannot say what would happen if you did. I would love to show you a screen shot I took but I don’t know how to post a picture for you. I can send it in an email if you like. Anyway I thought you would want to know about this. Love the new site!

Carolyn, your cake looks luscious! Please will you post your recipe on your site? As others said, I received this message when clicking on your recipe link:
“Attackers currently on asweetlife.org might attempt to install dangerous programs on your computer that steal or delete your information (for example, photos, passwords, messages, and credit cards).”

When I click on your link to A Sweet Life for recipe, a warning pops up for malware. I am using a Mac computer, but this is so weird. I will look for it elsewhere and see what happens. Just thought you might want to know.
I got that also when I clicked on it. I’m on a PC, not a Mac.
Me too, on my iPad.
me too. I’ve been to sweetlife dozens of times, but this is the first time I get this warning. And it won’t let me push through it.
Darn, wanted to try this cake!

The A Sweet Life site has not been working for me in past weeks when I try to get your recipes via your link. It comes up as an empty page with only ads on the margin. I’ve even tried going through their site directly. The front page comes up when I go through their site, but when I click on “read more” under the recipe, I get the same empty page. Very frustrating! I really love your recipes but haven’t been able make anything. Any ideas what is wrong?

I’ve told them numerous times that this is an issue and they have had their site swept over and over and it says there is no malware. They are updating their site soon so we hope that fixes this issue!
Thank you Carolyn – ’cause I really want that recipe!!
When you click on the link, it says you’ve got malware on that page and gives you a button to press to get back to safety…so we can’t get the recipe…plus thought you should know about this!!!
Can you please email me this recipe?

I get a malware error message when I try to open this recipe. I can open “A sweet life” just fine, but when I try to open this specific recipe, I get the malware notice. 🙁 Anyone else have this problem?

What! Pumpkin is one of the all time go to ingredients for desert in any form. Can’t wait to make this, thanks keep the Pumpkin coming.
Hi! Love your recipes but I do have a question. I have a soy protein that is stable in cooking. Can it be substituted for the whey protein?
Thanks!
Kathy
Probably.
