4. The dough can be made in vegetable oil or butter. In the first version, it will smell more pleasant, and in the second, the cake will turn out to be tender and will not get stale in a few days. It is worth noting that replacing some of the flour with ground nuts or starch will also help keep the cake fresh and soft for a long time.
5. Do not open the door of the equipment in which you are cooking until the product is baked: its height depends on this. If you open it ahead of time, the treat will fall off.

Pumpkin orange muffin

To bake a tender and juicy pumpkin orange muffin, you will need the following ingredients.

Pumpkin can be used to make many delicious dishes. Porridge, jam is made from it, casseroles, pies, cookies, pancakes are made, it can be stewed and baked. But today I would like to talk about the "orange miracle" - about pumpkin muffins. These pumpkin muffins will certainly appeal to your kids, not only for their appearance, but also for their taste. Very aromatic and delicate cupcakes will not leave indifferent any baking lover. I suggest you make small rose-shaped muffins, although if you have a large pan, you can also bake a large pumpkin muffin, I think this will not make the taste worse.

Pumpkin muffins

In order to make pumpkin muffins, you will need the following ingredients:

Ingredients:

• Chicken eggs - 2 pieces,
• Granulated sugar - 100 grams,
• Pumpkin - 300 grams,
• Mayonnaise or sour cream - 100 grams,
• Baking soda (slaked with vinegar) - ½ teaspoon (no slide),
• Wheat flour - 1.5 cups,
• Vegetable or butter (for lubricating the mold).

Cooking process:

In a deep cup, beat the chicken eggs with the addition of granulated sugar, as a result you should get a fluffy homogeneous mass.

Then we add mayonnaise, which you can easily replace with low-fat sour cream to reduce calorie content. Mix everything thoroughly until smooth.

Add vinegar slaked baking soda to the resulting mass. You can replace the baking soda with baking powder (1.5 teaspoons) if you are used to using it.

Rinse the pumpkin, peel it, remove the seeds, grate on a coarse or medium grater and add to the whipped mass. But if you want the pumpkin to feel more clearly in the cupcake, then I recommend that you cut the pumpkin pulp into small cubes.

Sift the flour into a separate cup and add it to the pumpkin dough in small portions. As a result, a slightly liquid dough should be obtained, which must be poured into molds, previously greased with vegetable or butter.

We fill the muffin tins by ½ the volume, as the dough rises well. If you pour more dough into the mold, you run the risk that your muffins may leak out of the mold or hang ugly like a mushroom.

For baking, I used a silicone rosette mold. Although they say that it does not need to be greased, I still grease it, in order to avoid incidents. If you wish, you can sprinkle a little granulated sugar on the top of each pumpkin cake before baking for a crisp crust and added sweetness to your baked goods.

Now we rearrange the molds on a flat baking sheet and send it to an oven preheated to 180 ° degrees for 30 - 40 minutes. Ready-made cupcakes should not be immediately removed from the mold, you need to let them settle for a little, about 15 minutes, so that they cool slightly, and only then remove from the mold. After removing the baked goods from the mold, you can sprinkle them with powdered sugar, which can be mixed with ground cinnamon for added flavor.

When cooked with pumpkin, they are crispy on the outside and moist on the inside, with a wonderful aroma, color and taste!

We thank our Slavyana for the recipe and photos of making pumpkin muffins.

Tackle both fresh and frozen pumpkin - quality will not be compromised. Clearly, the sweeter and brighter the melons, the tastier the pumpkin muffins.

Even at a considerable height, the product remains airy, loose and porous. And spices make up for the lack of taste.

My spicy pumpkin muffin is made with vegetable oil. And this is essential. Replacing creamy or margarine, we risk making the already weighty vegetable shavings heavier. I recommend sunflower or refined corn in order to exclude unnecessary impurities in the fragrant "bouquet".

Cooking time: 60 minutes / Servings: 8-10 / Mold diameter 20-22 cm

Ingredients

• pumpkin 150 g
• wheat flour 250-300 g
• refined sunflower oil 100 ml
• eggs 2 pcs.
• sugar 50-70 g
• honey 50 g
• baking powder 12 g
• sea ​​salt 3 g
• nutmeg, dried rosemary, cinnamon, ginger to taste

Preparation

You can sweeten the dough with either granulated sugar or only honey. I take both. The total amount of sweetness is in the range of 100-120 g. I recommend adding at least a little honey (spoon or two). Together with spices, the honey smell becomes magical. In addition, the crumb takes on a velvety bronze tint. Drive the eggs into a working bowl, add sugar and beat for a minute with a mixer or a little longer with a hand whisk. You just need to combine the whites with the yolks and bring them to a lather.



We continue the simple steps with vegetable oil and honey. I have a flowery, thickened and still fluid, easily combines with a liquid egg-sugar composition. Whisk. If honey is strongly crystallized, hardened, pre-melt in a water bath or in a microwave oven, then the components are easily mixed until smooth.



Spice line. Toss in the ground ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon and dried rosemary needles. Salt to taste. After stirring, we try. If the taste is not too expressive, you can add aromas now or along with flour. Often, sweet spicy pastries are flavored with cloves, allspice and hot peppers, anise, thyme, cardamom, turmeric - the last strong natural dye, gives Asian notes and colors deep yellow.



The cake is in the oven for a long time, so even raw shavings have time to steam. The main thing is to grate it thinly. I don't squeeze the juice, I rub it right over the bowl. Before that, we clean the seeds and cut off the peel, leave only a dense center, stir.



Sift flour and baking powder to the liquid base. Usually, the portion of baking powder for the specified weight of flour is less than two times (5-7 g). But since our vegetable is heavy and juicy, additional lifting force is required. I lost the whole 12g baking powder package.



Sprinkle the wheat flour in parts, you need a thick, but sticky texture, like for charlotte, kefir pies. We remove dry areas, try again, if necessary, season with spices and knead until the additives are evenly distributed. The dough has bright orange blotches, smells delicious and shines.



Pour the viscous dough into an oiled and dusty form with a thin layer of flour - bake until a "dry match" for about 30-40 minutes at a temperature of 180 degrees. We preheat the oven to the maximum. Cool the product in a container, take it out and cut it into portions.

Homemade pumpkin cake with spices is ready. It seems to me that powder and glaze are not needed here. Serve with hot tea - bon appetit!
