Pumpkin Butter Cake

Monday, May 7, 2012 5:13

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

I was very attracted to the smooth and nice golden color of this pumpkin cake when I first saw it at Table for 2… or more and I shelved it because I don’t know where to buy those pumpkin seeds sprinkled on top. Then last week I chanced upon Nasi Lemak Lover’s pumpkin butter cake and was reminded of the pumpkin cake which I have in my to-bake-list. Finally, I get to trying this cake and clear some of the almond flaks in the fridge.

I love the natural sweetness from the pumpkin and the smooth texture of this cake. Besides, Pumpkin is incredibly rich in vital anti-oxidants and vitamins. This humble backyard vegetable is very low in calories yet good source of vitamin A, flavonoid poly-phenolic antioxidants like leutin, xanthins and carotenes.

This is a healthy cake to indulge in without feeling guilty ….

200gm butter

Method:
1. Beat butter, sugar and vanilla until light and creamy.

2. Add in eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
3. Add in half of sifted flour, on low speed then beat until well combined.

5. Put in remaining flour and beat until just combined.
