Rich in magnesium, iron, folate, and vitamins A, B12, D, and C, this cake uses pumpkin puree and chickpea flour for exceptional fiber and protein content, natural sweetness from date or maple syrup, and a vitamin and antioxidant punch from cocoa, orange zest, and sunflower seeds. Egg and fortified soy milk supply additional choline, B12, and vitamin D, while cinnamon and vanilla add classic cake flavor. With no dairy, minimal added sugar, and no nuts, this recipe comes together quickly for a cozy snack or dessert that also addresses cravings and helps meet your most important micronutrient needs—especially for sleep support.
