Gingerbread Crumb Cake







     I was so excited to try out my new jar of Coconut Manna, so what's a girl to do but to whip up a Gingerbread Crumb Cake!  Seemed a reasonable way to spend my afternoon....until I had eaten 2/3rd of the cake because it was so colossally delicious I couldn't stop myself...  :0 #whoops #mybad #sorrynotsorry #mysnackturnedintodinner   Luckily each of the 6 pieces are only 212 calories, 13g net carb and 11.5g protein.  With the Holidays coming on, I think this is a perfect solution to any festive gathering... just try and keep it to one piece... people may stare...  ;)
