2.   Make the buttermilk by adding the lemon juice or vinegar to heavy whipping cream. Stir well and let sit 5 – 10 minutes

3.   Into a large mixing bowl, using a wire sieve, combine all the dry ingredients: almond flour, coconut flour, ground golden flax seeds, glucomannan powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, clove powder, nutmeg powder.

4.   Into a stand mixer or large mixing bowl, add the pumpkin puree and granulated sweetener. Beat for 2 to 3 minutes to combine well. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well before adding the next egg. Add the melted butter, beat until combined. Scrape the bowl as needed

5.   Reduce mixer speed to low and add the dry ingredients, beat until well combined

Leave loaves in pans for 10 minutes and then remove from pan and peel away the parchment paper. Place onto cooling rack to cool completely

10.   Make the cream cheese filling by putting the room temperature cream cheese, unsalted butter, maple extract and Lakanto monk fruit sweetener (ground to confectionery) into a mixing bowl. Whip at high speed for about 5 minutes until cream cheese mixture is light and fluffy

11.   When the loaves have cooled completely, place the layer without the pumpkin seeds on the bottom. Layer the prepared maple cream cheese filling on top of the bottom.
