You will need:
I used a ~12x22cm size and 6cm deep baking tray.
● 220 g. wheat flour
● 1 teaspoon of baking powder
● 1 teaspoon of baking soda
● 1,5 teaspoon of cinnamon
● 1 teaspoon of ground ginger
● Β½ teaspoon of ground nutmeg
● Β½ teaspoon of ground cloves
● 100 g. of sugar
● Pinch of salt
● 80 g. of walnuts
● 300 ml. of pumpkin puree (see note below)
● 60 ml. coconut oil
● 150 ml. unsweetened plant-based milk (soy is used)
● 2 teaspoons of fresh lemon juice

Note: To make pumpkin puree - cut your pumpkin in half and remove its seeds. I also remove the stem. Place both pumpkin sides inside down in a baking tin on baking paper. Put it in a preheated oven to 200 Celsius and bake for about 50 minutes or until it is very soft when poked with a fork. Then remove all the peel with a spoon and blend the pumpkin flesh until smooth and and it will be your pumpkin puree.

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 180Β° C.
    2.Mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, all spices (cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves), sugar and salt.

    3.In a separate bowl, mix together the pumpkin puree, melted oil, milk and lemon juice.

    4.Add the flour mixture to the pumpkin mixture, a little at a time, and stir it all together.
  2. Roughly chop or smash the walnuts.

    Add the chopped walnuts to the mixture and stir.

    6.Grease a baking tray with about a teaspoon of coconut oil. The baking tray used in this recipe is ~12x22cm wide and 6cm deep.

    7.Place the dough in the baking tray and smooth the surface.

    8.Bake for about 40-50 minutes or until a wooden skewer inserted into the cake is dry.

    9.After baking, leave to cool slightly before serving.
