Combine the sweetness of pumpkin and the freshness of pear with the spice of cinnamon and you’ll get this super soft, dense and not-so-sweet plumcake, perfect for a great start of the day.

Now let’s see what’s inside and how to prepare it!

You will need to precook the pumpkin (i used frozen one) and let the dates sit in hot water for 30 min. Preheat the oven at 170° C.

Total preparation time: 15 min

1. Skin and chop the pear, and blend it together with the pumpkin, the dates, the egg white (or whole egg) and the honey
2. Transfer to a bowl, add the kefir and. mix with a whip
3. Mix in a bowl the flours, the cinnamon and the baking powder
4. Sift the flours into the blended mixture and mix with a mixer
5. Line a plumcake tin with baking paper and pour the dough. I used a very small plumcake tin (10cm)
6. Bake at 170° C for 50-60min. Check the cooking with a toothpick at 50min, and if necessary, add some extra time. I used ventilated mode for 50+10 min
7. Let it cool and serve! I suggest serving with some cream cheese frosting (you can make it from ricotta and greek yogurt or cream cheese and greek yogurt).

Let me know if you try it and how you like it!
