Pumpkin Cake
Ingredients:
- dry ingredients:
- 90g wheat flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 ml salt
- 3 ml ground cinnamon
- 4 ml pumpkin pie spice:
- 1 ml ground nutmeg
- 1 ml ground clove (2 pieces)
- 1 ml ground allspice (2 pieces)
- 1 ml ground ginger
- liquid ingredients:
- 2 eggs
- 80 ml sunflower (or other neutral-tasting) oil
- 100 g brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 175 g pumpkin puree
- can be made by taking half of a smaller pumpkin, removing the seeds and the pulp, and roasting it for ~50 minutes, until it gets soft, and blending the meat in a blender
- cream cheese frosting:
- 80 g cream cheese
- 40 g butter
- 120 g powdered sugar
- 2 ml vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
Algorithm:
- Whisk the dry ingredients in a large bowl, set aside.
- Whisk the liquid ingredients in another bowl until combined.
- Pour the liquid ingredients into the dry and whisk until combined. The batter should be thick (add more flour otherwise).
- Spread the batter in a pan (I use a 18.5 cm springform pan) and bake for 30--36 min, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the cake browns too quick, put an aluminum foil over it.
- When done, cool completely.
- Prepare the frosting as follows.
- In a large bowl (so that it doesn't escape) using a mixer with a paddle or a whisk attachment, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth.
- Add the rest of the ingredients, beat on low for 30 seconds and then switch on high for 2 minutes. You can add more sugar to make the frosting thicker.
- Spread the frosting on the cooled cake and refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving.
