Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups pumpkin puree
  • 3 large eggs room temperature
  • ⅔ cup Swerve Granular
  • ½ cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 box Swerve Yellow Cake Mix divided
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • ⅓ cup Swerve Brown
  • ½ cup butter melted

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF and grease a 9×13 inch glass or ceramic baking pan.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, eggs, sweetener, whipping cream, pumpkin spice, and salt. Measure out ½ cup of the cake mix and whisk into the pumpkin mixture until smooth.
  • Pour into the prepared baking pan, then sprinkle the remaining cake mix evenly overtop.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the pecans with the Swerve Brown. Sprinkle this evenly over the cake mix, then drizzle the melted butter evenly over the pecans.
  • Bake 45 to 55 minutes, until the top is just firm to the touch and a rich, deep brown. It will still be very soft underneath.
  • Remove and let cool to room temperature. You can also eat it warm, or chill it in the refrigerator to firm it up.
