We're always looking for tasty ways to use our Keto Caramel Sauce, and this Caramel Chai Spiced Pumpkin Cake is near perfect!
Same as the lava cake, to get the perfect texture, we went with one of our favorite flour combos, Bob’s Red Mill Super Fine Almond Flour, Organic Coconut Flour, and Organic Brown Flaxseed Meal. Using both almond flour and coconut flour together is one of our best tricks to mimic all-purpose flour. The flaxseed makes a perfect egg replacer too.

Chef's note
This Caramel Chai Spiced Pumpkin Cake combines almond and coconut flours for a moist and tender texture, but sticking to the recipe and using the recommended brands is crucial due to the unique nature of these flours. Erythritol doesn't have the same aftertaste as other sugar alcohols, making it a preferred choice among bakers, but feel free to explore other sweeteners until you find your favorite.

How to make Caramel Chai Spiced Pumpkin Cake: step-by-step guide
Cooking methods
Preparation steps
- Start by ensuring you have all your ingredients in one place. A well-organized kitchen means less stress and more fun!
- Preheat the oven, set the temperature to 350°F (180°C) while preparing the batter.
- Grease an 8-inch round cake pan with butter or cooking spray and line it with parchment paper. The grease will ensure your cake doesn't stick to the pan and comes out perfectly.
Cooking instructions
- Mix the dry ingredients: Take a large mixing bowl, and whisk the almond flour, coconut flour, brown erythritol, baking powder, sea salt, and chai spice until evenly combined.
- Prepare the flaxseed "eggs": Combine the flaxseed meal and warm water in a small bowl. Let it stay on the counter for about 5 minutes to thicken. This flaxseed mixture will work magic as an egg substitute, giving your cake a moist and tender crumb.
- Combine the wet ingredients: Take another bowl to mix the pumpkin puree, almond milk, flaxseed, and vanilla extract.
- Unite the dry and wet ingredients: Gradually fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined.
- Pour the batter: Use a nonstick cooking spray to grease the 8-inch round cake pan. Then, gently pour the cake batter into the pan. Take a rubber spatula to level the top.
- Bake the cake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Place the pan with the batter in the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes. Do a toothpick test. Insert a toothpick in the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, it is cooked.
- Cool and serve: Once done, let the cake cool completely before removing and drizzling with the keto caramel sauce. Be patient, use a wooden pick to test the cake, and cool it down. Now, it's time to slice, serve, and enjoy fall's sweet and spicy flavors.
