The old cake mold has been useless for many days. Today I wanted to make a pumpkin puree flavor, so I found it out. I also didn't read the previous recipe, and made a new recipe completely based on my existing cake experience and vague memory. As a result, the baked cake shrank, and there were some cracks on the surface.

If this is normal, I will definitely not take a cost map, nor will I write this recipe to share. After all, for a person who is pursuing perfection, the appearance of this cake is a bit hard to come by.

But after cutting it, the internal structure is still delicate, and the taste and taste are superb. Especially when it is eaten after refrigeration, the taste is moist and soft, and it feels like a light cheesecake. I really feel like making a profit. I feel a little bit more gratified in my regret, and I took a few photos of it, which can be regarded as a complete explanation, and it is also convenient for myself to sum up my experience.

Tips:
1. This formula can be used to make old-fashioned cakes. The operation process is exactly the same. If milk is used, the amount of pumpkin paste can be replaced with 60-70 grams of pure milk;
2. This is made by the water bath method. The cake is relatively moist and has the taste of light cheese cake after refrigeration; if you do not spread oil paper and do not use the water bath method, it will be the taste of ordinary chiffon cake. The heating temperature and time can be adjusted to the upper and lower fire. 140 degrees, 70-80 minutes.
