2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
teaspoon ground nutmeg
teaspoon ground ginger
teaspoon ground allspice
teaspoon ground cloves
PREHEAT THE oven to 350F. Lightly grease a 9 13-inch baking pan.
Prepare the streusel: In a small bowl, mix together the flour, brown sugar, and spices. Drizzle in the canola oil and mix with your fingertips until crumbs form. Add the chopped pecans and mix.
Prepare the cake: In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin, soy milk, oil, granulated sugar, mola.s.ses and vanilla. Mix well. Add roughly half the flour, the baking powder, salt, and spices, and use a fork to fold everything together. Add the remaining flour and mix gently until combined. Don't use a hand blender for this, as pumpkin can get gummy if it's mixed too aggressively. Blending with a fork helps maintain the texture.
Pour batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it out with a spatula. Scatter the streusel on top as evenly as possible. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, until a knife inserted through the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven, let cool, and cut into squares.
COCONUT-LEMON BUNDT CAKE.
SERVES 10.
TIME: 1 HOUR 30 MINUTES.
Bundt is a hilarious name for this variety of cake. Get past the silliness with the enticing combination of tangy, bright lemon and irresistible chewy shredded coconut, made extra moist with plenty of coconut milk. No need for an icing on this cake, which is bursting with extreme flavor. It's so simple and good-just "slice and go"-but sprinkle with a little powdered sugar to dress it up.
1 cups granulated sugar
cup canola oil
1 (14-ounce can) coconut milk
cup rice or soy milk
cup lemon juice
3 tablespoons finely grated lemon zest
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cups shredded unsweetened coconut
A few tablespoons confectioners' sugar for sprinkling
PREHEAT THE oven to 350F. Lightly grease an 8- or 10-inch Bundt pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, oil, coconut milk, rice milk, lemon juice and zest, and vanilla. Stir to combine.
Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into the wet ingredients in batches, mixing well after each addition. Fold in the coconut.
Pour the batter into the Bundt pan. Bake for 1 hour, or until a knife inserted through the cake comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let cool for about 10 minutes, then place a cutting board over the cake pan, gently flip over, and release the cake from the pan. Let cool completely. One cooled, sift a sprinkling of confectioners' sugar over the top. Slice and serve.
LOWER-FAT DEEP CHOCOLATE BUNDT CAKE.
SERVES 12.
TIME: 70 MINUTES.
This is a wonderfully rich chocolate Bundt with a delicate crumb. And it delivers big chocolate flavor without a whole lot of fat. Fresh brewed coffee and almond extract heighten all that chocolate, and applesauce stands in beautifully for most of the oil. This cake doesn't need a glaze or frosting, just a simple sprinkling of confectioners' sugar.
Whole wheat pastry flour leaves the fiber of the wheat intact without sacrificing any of the texture, but if you can't find whole wheat pastry flour then regular all-purpose flour will do the trick. But don't subst.i.tute regular whole wheat flour, it is different from pastry flour and will result in a rough and chewy texture.
1 cups fresh brewed coffee
cup unsweetened Dutch-processed cocoa powder
1 cups granulated sugar
