A really moist delicious pumpkin cake recipe I found online and adapted to be vegan. I attempted to use this in order to make the 2-bundt pumpkin-shaped cake I saw on Pinterest but my pumpkin capsized on transport - could have been because I didn't wait for the cake to totally cool first or because this cake is so dense and heavy. Either way, it tasted amazing! (Made vegan and with Pumpkin Cream Cheese Frosting) Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour |
1 cup all-purpose flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon |
1 teaspoon allspice |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 1/4 cups canned pumpkin (not pie filling) |
2 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice or 2 1/2 teaspoons vinegar |
3/4 cup soymilk |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 cup unsalted butter, softened |
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar |
3 tablespoons ener-g egg substitute |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F Butter & flour bundt pan (dip the corner of a paper towel in softened butter - rub all over inner surface of bundt and check to make sure it's shiny - turn on side, add 1/2 cup flour, roll around to coat, and shake out excess). Prepare buttermilk mixture by placing 2 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice or vinegar in a glass measuring cup, adding enough soymilk (~3/4 cup) in order to make a total of 3/4 cup, stir, and let stand 10 minutes.
2. Combine all ingredients from flour through salt in a bowl. In a second bowl, whisk together pumpkin, buttermilk mixture, and vanilla.
3. Beat softened butter and sugar at medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes. Add the egg replacer, along with 1/2 cup water, and beat one minute. Reduce speed to low and add flour and pumpkin mixtures a little at a time, alternating each time, beginning AND ending with the flour mixture, until all mixtures are combined and the resulting batter is just smooth.
4. Spoon the batter into bundt pan and shake to remove any bumps. Bake until a pick inserted in the center comes out clean, around 45-50 minutes.
5. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting over a cookie rack to cool further.
