Have you seen my pumpkin ebook for 25 pumpkin recipe that aren’t pie and 1 that is? I think you would love it.
You’re looking at a recipe that just jumped into my permanent rotation for Fall. This easy pumpkin cake made in ramekins has become my go-to dessert lately because it’s easy, adaptable, and uses the last bit of pumpkin in the can. I’ve made it a few different ways over the weeks (even vegan!) and it’s all so very good. I mean, that could just be the pumpkin spice-sprinkled whipped cream talking, but I think the cake stands on its own, too. Even Camille has had a few bites of the cake and begged for more. If you’ve been around here long enough, you know that you’re going to have leftover pumpkin puree all season long while we bake pumpkin desserts for two. I don’t have a recipe that uses more than a ½ cup at a time. Sorry, small dessert problems. (But small desserts = small pants, right?) This recipe for easy pumpkin cake in ramekins uses ¼ cup of pumpkin puree.
I have this idea to scale down all of my favorite cakes into two ramekins, but I also have an idea to fit in my pants by the time the holidays arrive. Oh wait, I could just ask Santa for bigger pants. Problem solved!
Modifications for Easy Pumpkin Cake made in Ramekins:
-if you want to make this vegan, use your favorite faux milk. I use coconut milk from the can. -if you’re totally out of milk, use an egg yolk instead. In that case, drop the baking powder down to ¼ teaspoon. -I have a recipe to make homemade pumpkin pie spice here. -no, you really don’t have to grease the ramekins -these are a perfectly acceptable breakfast. I asked a doctor. Other things I should tell you: you’re going to be addicted to these pumpkin cakes in ramekins and immediately ask me if you can double, triple, quadruple, quint—(huh?) the recipe. Yes yes, you may.
