Pumpkin Oatmeal Cake
1.
Prepare all the ingredients.
2.
Cut the outer crusty of the old pumpkin, dig out the inner flesh and pumpkin seeds, cut into small pieces with a knife, and steam them in a steamer.
3.
Pour 100ml of freshly boiled water into the instant oatmeal and soak for a few minutes to allow the oatmeal to fully absorb the water. Red dates are also soaked in water.
4.
Steam the pumpkin to the point where it can be easily pierced through with chopsticks. The pumpkin is cut into small pieces and can be easily steamed through, just a few minutes.
5.
Wash the red dates to clean the dust inside the folds, remove the date cores, and then cut into small pieces for use.
6.
Pour the soaked oatmeal together with the water for soaking the oatmeal into the cooking cup, and put the steamed pumpkin in it, and smash it.
7.
Pour the oatmeal pumpkin puree into a fine and thick paste into a bowl.
8.
Put flour and red dates in the oatmeal pumpkin paste, and also put the yeast powder in.
9.
Use a rubber spatula to stir and mix evenly to form a fine paste.
10.
Pour the pumpkin paste into the high-temperature-resistant paper cup for baking. Don't pour it too full. It's about 70 to 80% full, and leave room for the pumpkin paste to ferment and expand. Use a spoon to smooth the surface of the pumpkin paste. Dip a little water on the back of the spoon and it will not stick.
11.
Put the paper cup into the basket, close the lid, and ferment.
12.
Ferment until it swells and becomes bigger, sprinkle a little black sesame seeds on the surface for garnish.
13.
Turn on the power, select the "medium heat" mode, and steam for 20 minutes.
14.
After steaming, don't rush to open the lid of the pot. Let it simmer for 3 minutes before removing the lid. When the steam drops in the pot and the temperature inside and outside is the same, it won't collapse.
Tips:
1. For paper cups, use high temperature resistant paper cups for baking, not ordinary disposable paper cups.
2. The steaming time should be adjusted appropriately according to the size and depth of the paper cup mold.
