chocolate pumpkin mini bundts {gf}

pumpkin everywhere!

this is the time to indulge in pumpkin everything- that is of course if you like pumpkin.

everywhere you turn you are bound to see loads of recipes inspired by the mighty fall pumpkin - some savory, some sweet; pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie filling and fresh pumpkin all find their way into most recipes this time of year- and i love it.

this has been one of the tastiest gluten free cakes i have ever made - so moist and flavorful.

gluten free oats are finely ground then combined with coconut flour (love coconut flour!), chocolate chunks, pumpkin puree and maple syrup. all the autumn goodness you could ever want in one bite.

  the mini bundts are baked - they actually bake up pretty quickly, in about 20 minutes or so. 

then drizzled with vegan white and dark chocolate sprinkled with pepitas for the finishing touch.

not only super tasty but beautiful, vegan & gluten free making any guest at your autumn table smile.

so pretty that i found it hard to pick the pictures for this post, which explains the picture overload

one thing is for certain, these beautiful chocolate pumpkin mini bundts will absolutely be finding their way to my annual thanksgiving dessert table.

 do you have a favorite pumpkin recipe you always make when you spot that first sugar pumpkin at the farmers market or can of pumpkin at the store?

 

have you had luck with gluten free baking - what is your best gluten free dessert recipe?
