Vegan MOFO- Day 7

I saw this recipe on Pinterest today and had to make it. Two ingredient pumpkin cake. You had me at two. All it is is a box of cake mix (I used vegan gluten free- pictured above) and a can of pumpkin. You just mix it together and bake it. I was skeptical, especially considering the who gluten free curve ball, but it was awesome!

I also made the apple cider glaze (it had... gasp... three ingredients!!). I made the glaze with a box of apple fruitbles juice instead of real cider and it came out just great. It is totally necessary too. The cake is not very sweet on its own. If you want it to be a legit dessert, it needs something.

The whole shebang took about 5 minutes of prep work (one minute of that was shaking the can to get the pumpkin out) and 35 minutes to bake (I let it go a little longer than the recipe; I probably didn't need to). I will totally make this again. It gets the vegan semi-homemade queen's seal of approval.
