STEEMIT CULINARY CHALLENGE #43: Autumnal Four Layers Cake With Some Nuts And Caramel. Second post for my entry with autumnal dish! (Sweet)
I love autumn (I know that I wrote that in my posts in the past haha), so this theme is perfect for me!
I'm also happy that I am able to participate in this challenge and also in Steemit Iron Chef. This gives me soo much fun during creating dishes and thanks to that I'm better in cooking and creating new recipes.
Who knows? Maybe one day I'll have my dreamy FoodTrack with healthy food? That would be amazing! 🤗
Ohhh, again I lost myself in daydreaming about FoodTrack, but let's come back to my recipe.
- dates with nuts
- millet with nuts
- pumpkin puree
- and amazing nutty caramel from dates!
And it's really tempting!
Isn't it? 😍 😋
For preparing cake you will need:
little circular form (18 cm)
First layer:
- a half glass of almonds
- 1/4 glass of sunflower seeds
- 1/4 glass of walnuts
- a handful of cashews
- 6-7 dates
- one tbsp of water
- one and a half tbsp of tahini
- a bit of cinnamon
- 1/3 tsp of ginger
Second layer:
- a half glass of dry millet
- two and a half cups of hot water
- five tbsp of lemon juice
- a handful of walnuts
- sprinkle of salt
Third layer:
- a half of hokkaido pumpkin
- one tbsp of coconut oil
- a bit of nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp of allspice
- 1/2 tsp of cinnamon
- a bit of ginger
Fourth layer:
- around 20 dates
- two tbsp of peanut butter 100%
For top:
- nuts
- coconut shavings
- you can even use goji or whatever you want
Preparing
- first cut pumpkin in parts like in the picture below, put it on pie pan with baking paper and start baking it in oven at 180° C till it will be soft
start preparing first layer, soak dates in water by 15 minutes
into vessel put all ingredients for first layer and start blending
put whole mass into form with cling film and by wet hand spread it
refrigerate form with mass for 40 minutes
in meantime start making second layer, wash millet on strainer by water stream
put millet into pot, add hot water, cook it till it will be overcooked
after that, add lemon juice, walnuts and start blending till it will be smooth
baked pumpkin put into vessel and start blending
put it into bowl, add spices, coconut oil and mix it together
- last layer, into vessel put ingredients for caramel. If you will see that mass is too hard for blending, add one tbsp of water
take out form from fridge, start adding layers
first add mass from millet
next add pumpkin puree
and at the end add caramel
add some nuts on top, cool down cake for all night in fridge, or at least few hours
And that's it! Very nutty and soooo autumnal cake! It taste best with hot tea in autumn evening, or even for meeting with friends!
