For an extra kick, use a little instant espresso powder to the batter!

Directions

In a large mug or a small bowl whisk together coconut flour, baking soda, and pumpkin pie spice.

Add egg, pumpkin puree, coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla and mix thoroughly to combine.
If you used a bowl to mix, fill the batter into a large mug. Microwave for about 1 1/2 - 2 1/2 minutes. Microwaves can vary greatly in strength, so check a few times.

Let sit for a couple minutes before eating. Optionally top with chopped pecans, walnuts or chocolate chips.
