Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter or margarine
- 1 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 Tbsp maple syrup
- 2 eggs separated
- 2 cups GFC Flour Blend for Baking
- 1 tsp xanthan gum
- 1 tsp allspice

Brown Sugar Icing:
- 1 cup brown sugar

- 1/2 cup icing sugar sifted
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
Instructions
- Beat 1 egg white until soft peaks form, set aside.
- Cream butter, add sugar and mix. Add in syrup and 1 whole egg.
- In another bowl mix remaining dry ingredients together. Then slowly alternate adding dry ingredients, pumpkin and milk to butter mixture. Once all combined and mixed well, fold in whipped egg white.
- Pour batter into greased cake or bundt pan, and bake at 350°F for 50-65 minutes.
- For icing: mix first four ingredients together in a saucepan and bring to a boil. While mixing constantly, boil for 2 minutes, then remove from heat and whisk in icing sugar, and vanilla. Beat until starts to thicken, then pour over cake (will set up within a minute, so pour/drizzle fast!).
