I made this on Sunday, and it was a big hit! It's pretty easy, too, which just makes it that much better.

1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon vanilla
Couple dashes each of cinnamon and nutmeg

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 

Cream together first four ingredients. Then add the rest of the ingredients and mix until smooth. Pour into a greased 9 x 13 pan.

Cinnamon Swirl:

1/4 cup cinnamon
2 Tablespoons nutemg
1/4 powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum

Bake for 20 minutes at 350.
