"Pumpkin" Coffee Cake

Necessity is the mother of invention...or modification. This is a recipe I modified for simplicity and to serve the ingredients stocked in my kitchen! The primary adaptions are butternut squash from a local farm to replace canned pumpkin, more cinnamon to replace pumpkin pie spice, and more maple syrup to replace coconut sugar. I served this treat over the holiday season! It was delightfully praised and quickly devoured.

Add in the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, pumpkin spice, cinnamon, and salt. Mix until no dry pockets remain.
