Learn how to cook "Pumpkin cake with ginger and caramel sauce". Delicious recipe.
Required products :
350 g peeled and cut into pieces of pumpkin
180 g butter at room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
20 g fresh ginger, peeled and finely shredded
250 g of brown sugar
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
3 eggs
450 g flour
2 teaspoons shredded dry ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
250 grams yogurt or skim sour cream
For the caramel sauce:
20 grams of butter
50 grams of brown sugar
1 tablespoon rum, cognac or whiskey
For decoration:
nuts optionally
candied orange peel
Method of preparation :
Boil the pumpkin, drain the water and mash the vegetables to make a puree.
Using a mixer, beat the butter with the vanilla essence, grated fresh ginger, sugar, orange peel. You should get a creamy consistency, to which you add the eggs one by one, beating after each.
Then add the pumpkin puree.
In a separate bowl, mix all the spices, baking soda and baking powder with the flour.
Add half of the yoghurt to the pumpkin mass, stirring by hand with a wooden spatula. Then put half of the dry mixture, stir again. Followed by the remaining milk and flour, respectively.
Spread the dough in a greased high cake tin with a hole in the middle. Bake in a preheated 180 degree oven for about an hour (or until ready, which you check with a toothpick).
Once you take the cake out of the oven, wait for it to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes and then take it out on a rack, where you leave it to cool completely.
Make the caramel sauce by mixing the butter with the sugar in a small saucepan. Put on low heat and stir until the sweet crystals melt and the contents of the dish become homogeneous. Boil for 5 minutes to thicken the consistency a bit, remove from the heat and pour in the alcohol.
Garnish the cake with nuts, candied orange peel, pour the caramel sauce and serve.
Enjoy your meal!
