Flour and Fat Free Moist Kabocha Squash Cake
- 200 grams Kabocha squash
- 80 grams Sugar
- 2 of any size Egg
- 50 grams Almond flour
- 15 grams Skim milk powder
- 1 Pumpkin seeds, dried wolfberries
- I recommend using Japanese kuri kabocha squash.
- Measure out 200 g after removing the seeds and pulp.
- Use unpeeled.
- Cut into medium sized chunks as shown in the photo.
- Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons of water, put the pieces win a heatproof container, cover with plastic wrap and microwave at 600 W for 3 minutes.
- While it is still warm mash the kabocha squash, skin and all.
- If the kabocha squash is still underdone and hard to mash, return it to the microwave.
- This depends on your preference, but it's fine to leave a few lumps in the kabocha squash mash.
- Preheat the oven to 180C.
- Put the eggs and sugar in a bowl and mix well.
- Add the almond flour and powdered milk (you don't need to sift it).
- Next, add the mashed kabocha squash from step 3 and mix well to combine.
- Pour the batter from step 5 into a parchment paper lined cake pan and place onto a preheated baking tray filled with boiling water.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- When the cake has cooled downa little, wrap it up in plastic and leave to cool completely.
- If adding toppings: After baking for about 15 minutes, when the top has dried out, put on the pumpking seeds.
- Dried wolfberries will burn in the oven so put them on the cake after it's baked.
