Harvest Breakfast/Coffee Cake I was craving a big, moist, pumpkin, apple, walnut and raisin cake. Here it is. Have it for breakfast all week.

Getting Started

Gather your ingredients and preheat your oven to 180° C. or 350° F.

Dry Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
300 g. Flour
200 g. Sugar1
10 g. Backing powder
5 g. Baking Soda
4 g. Salt

Using a wire whisk combine these ingredients together so that the baking powder, baking soda and salt are distributed in the flour and sugar.

Spices

Quantity Ingredient
4 g. Cinnamon
1 g. Nutmeg
1 g. Cloves
3 g. Ginger

Whisk the spices into the flour mixture until evenly distributed.

Wet Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
125 ml Oil 2
125 g. Yogurt
4 large Eggs
485 g. Pumpkin (pureé)
450 g. Apple (chopped)
100 g. Raisins
100 g. Walnuts

Stir the wet ingredients in to the dry ones until a nice thick dough forms.

Pour the dough into a 9x13 baking pan and bake for about 45 min. Check to see if the cake is done when a knife comes out clean.


Footnotes

  1. A note about sugar: This particular version of the coffee cake adaptable draws most of it’s sweetness from the fruit, especially the raisins or dates. If you leave those away, you may want to increase the sugar a bit. 

  2. If you are weighing your ingredients directly into the bowl, 125 ml of oil weighs around 90 g.
