Pumpkin Crumb Cake

EISEI discovered this excellent pumpkin crumb cake at the Kitchn. For some reason, I did not use much pumpkin, in my baking, this past year.  Previously, I was using pumpkin, what seemed like most of the time.

I think, I made up for the pumpkin with my use of squash and sweet potatoes.  Orange food is good. 



 Pumpkin Crumb Cake
 
makes one 13×9 cake  

 Dry Ingredients:
 
1 cup sugar
2 1/2 cups gluten-free flour  (I have stopped using guar and xanthan gum without a difference.  If you usually use it, please add the amount you normally would put into this size cake.)
1 teaspoon salt
3 teaspoons baking powder Cake Batter
1/2 cup margarine, softened
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 dry mix above Pumpkin Filling
3 eggs
1 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1 cup dark brown sugar
2/3 cup milk
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon ginger
1/2 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg Crumb Topping
1/2 cup  gluten-free flour
1/2 cup margarine 1 tablespoon water
1/2 dry mixture (see above)
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger 

Method:

Heat the oven to 350°F. 
Sift together the gluten-free flour, sugar, salt and baking powder for the dry mix. 
Beat the margarine until whipped and creamy and then beat in the eggs and vanilla. 
Beat in about half of the dry mix of flour and sugar. Set aside. 
Whip together the eggs, pumpkin puree, milk, brown sugar and spices for the pumpkin filling. Set aside. 
Mix the rest of the dry mix with a stick of margarine, an extra half cup of flour, and the spices.  

Grease a 9×13 baking pan and pat the dough into the bottom.
Pour the pumpkin filling over top and sprinkle the crumb topping over it.  
Bake 45 minutes until the filling is set inside. 
Let cool for at least an hour before slicing.

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

Image
It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi...

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I ...
