2 tablespoons plus 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened, divided
2 tablespoons plus 3/4 cup coconut sugar, divided
1 teaspoon cinnamon, divided
2 golden delicious apples, thinly sliced
1/2 cup canned pumpkin
2 eggs
1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup buttermilk
3 tablespoons JUSTIN’S® Maple Almond Butter
2 teaspoons coconut oil
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a microwave safe bowl, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Stir in 2 tablespoons sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon; spread mixture into a 9-in. cast-iron skillet. Arrange sliced apples in a single layer over butter mixture.
In a medium bowl with an electric mixer, beat remaining ¼ cup butter and ¾ cup sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in pumpkin. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt and remaining ½ teaspoon cinnamon; add to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk, beating well after each addition.
Spread batter evenly over apples. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 30-35 minutes. Loosen sides of cake from pie plate with a knife. Cool 10 minutes before flipping onto a serving plate.
To make the glaze, melt almond butter and coconut oil in the microwave for about 30 seconds. Stir well and drizzle over the cake. Slice and enjoy!

I love creating recipes that don’t require any heat because I can make my kids do it when I get lazy. This Easy No Bake Peanut Butter Granola was made with your kids in mind. I’ve included JUSTIN’S® Chocolate Hazelnut and Almond Butter and JUSTIN’S® Classic Peanut Butter for added sweetness. I’ve also added “easy” and “no bake” in the title so they don’t complain. You can even let them have a piece if you’re feeling extra generous.
This recipe needs no introduction, but I’ll write one anyway. There’s so many great things to say about this Paleo Almond Butter Brownie Parfait, it’s one of my kids’ favorites. It includes a bed of rich chocolate pudding, under a layer of coconut whipped cream, and topped with fudgy chocolate brownies. Yum! Did I mention it’s Paleo-friendly? You have to try it for yourself.
