Ingredients (8-10 servings):

  • 1kg pumpkin (Hokaido for the right texture and taste)

  • 2 eggs

  • 1 dl sugar

  • 1 tsp cinnamon

  • 2 dl flour

  • ½ tsp baking powder

  • 2 apples


How to:

Turn your oven on 200C, cut the pumpkin into small bits and steam them until soft. Puré them using a mixer, then add the eggs, sugar and cinnamon while mixing. In another bowl whisk together flour and baking powder and gradually add it to the pumpkin puré. Now peel and cut out the core of the apples and slice them into thin slices. Blend the apple slices into the cake mixture and poor it into a greased round cake pan. Put it in the oven and leave for 45-50 minutes until the cake has solidified. Let it cool down and put it in the fridge for a couple of hours before removing it from the pan.
