To start the fall conveniently, there's nothing better then a Spiced Pumpkin Cake.
Let's jump right into it.
For one cake (baking tin of 23cm) you will need:
350 gr pumpkin (peeled)
3 eggs
225 gr flour
170 gr caster sugar
110 gr butter
Half a tsp cinnamon
5 gr fresh ginger (peeled + diced)
6 gr baking powder
a pinch of salt
Optional: walnuts
50 gr Philadelphia
25 gr butter
50 gr powder sugar
Optional: vanilla
Preheat your oven to 170 °C.
Make sure to clean your pumpkin well. By this I mean that you have to remove the pumpkin seeds.
Rasp you pumpkin. Tip Use your food-processor for this!
Pumpkin contains a lot of water, so make sure to "press" it out by (for example) using paper towel.
It should look like this:
Mix the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, cinnamon, ginger, baking powder and the salt).
Mix, in another bowl, the eggs and the melted butter.
Now add carefully your "wet" ingredients to your "dry" ingredients.
Add your pumpkin.
Now butter and flour your baking tin.
Pour the batter in the baking tin.
Bake 30 to 35 minutes.
Let the cake cool down!
Make your frosting in the meantime.
Just whip the philadelphia, butter, sugar.
Once the cake has completely cooled down you can frost him!
Eat straight away or let it cool in the fridge (the frosting will set).
Tip: make it as soon as possible, before fall is over ;-)
