Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground cardamom
2 teaspoons lemon zest
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 egg yolk
2 cups pumpkin puree
¾ cup vegetable oil
3 egg whites, beaten
1 apple - peeled, cored, and sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9 inch round cake pan.
  • Mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, cardamom, lemon zest, and ginger in a large bowl. Add the egg yolk, pumpkin puree, and oil; mix until smooth.

The apple topping was delicious, but the cake itself was a bit dry.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cake didn't turn out as good as the pictures. It was still edible, but it wasn't very moist.
