Now here is a recipe that can be used during the Thanksgiving season as well as the Christmas season although when it comes to food and of course I know how to prepare all the recipes that I share with everyone everyday can be a holiday for me depending on what my taste is for a particular day.
Every persons taste is different and that is what makes the world go around, but there isn’t much that I don’t like when it comes to the sweet things.
Remember your ingredients should be at room temperature.
Recipe
1-2/3 cups all purpose flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
2 large eggs slightly beaten
1 ½ cups sugar 1 ½ cups canned solid pack pumpkin
½ cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup each walnuts and raisins
Preheat your oven to 350 degrease. Grease a 9 x 5 inch loaf pan.
In a 5 quart mixing bowl combine the first 5 ingredients then add eggs, sugar, pumpkin, oil and mix until well combined then add your nuts and raisins and mix until smooth.
Pour your mix into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 70 minutes or until a pick placed into the center comes out clean.
Cool in pan on wire rack 10 minutes then remove from pan and continue to cool on same rack.
Well now it’s time to eat it, get out the butter and coffee and “enjoy”.
Now here is a coffee cake that will make you want no other coffee cake, and once you prepare this coffee cake and get a real working idea about this cake you can become very creative and use some different jams, jellies, fruits and so on.
Always remember that there is a lot that you can do with a recipe providing you don’t exceed the parameters of the original recipe.
All ingredients should be at room temperature.
Recipe
¼ pound butter
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
8 ounces sour cream
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
Cream the butter and sugar together then add eggs one at a time and mix the rest of the ingredients together slowly.
In a separate bowl combine 1 cup brown sugar, ½ cup diced walnuts and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon or as much as you like and mix them together.
Using a 10 inch x 3inch tube pan, make sure that the pan is well greased and floured, place some cake mix in the bottom and then some of the sugar, walnut and cinnamon mixture and then repeat this procedure until you have all the cake mix in the pan and the top layer is the cinnamon mixture.
Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for about 45 minutes or until a pick placed in the center of the cake comes out clean, cool and enjoy, I like mine warm with some raspberry jam on it.
